This has a lot of internal changes, so could use some wider testing. Please test.

I've just discovered a serious bug.  When installing from a local directory that either doesn't exist or isn't a valid repository, setup doesn't correctly read/write the installed file database (/etc/setup/installed.db).

I *think* the problem is that packagedb::read is never called.  Since do_local_dir returns false, LocalDirPage::OnNext takes us directly to the chooser.  This means that do_ini_thread never gets to the line that calls db.read.

Yeah, my mistake.

I just submitted two patches that seem to fix this.

Thanks.
