* Added another test as suggested by Nagy on the ML- a package both provides

for and is a dependency of another package. (upgrade057)
* Removed man2html stuff from doc/Makefile.am.
* Patch: improved depends checking in _alpm_checkdeps
  Nagy Gabor <ngaba@petra.hos.u-szeged.hu>
* Slight revisions to pmrule.py to allow for a PKG_PROVIDES test.
* Very quick updates to the pactest README.
* Added rules to some of the newer upgrade tests. Note: upgrade055 now fails
  due to requiredby entries not being written packages that are dependencies
  in a provides role.
