Though the "self.decription" calls here are all descendants of the mintBackup class, so don't apply, and according to the API reference, http://apt.alioth.debian.org/python-apt-doc/library/apt.cache.html, cache.has_key() is still relevant within this scope.

I'll be submitting a patch for the other proglems shortly. Sorry for not catching this the first time around.

patch attatched. note the above reference to line 1433 from the migration script was not changed. The api reference on pthon-apt's site is a little lacking, IMHO, however, i looked at the code and Package.installed returns a Version() object, which does have a summary attribute. I've tested saving/restoring packages and all is well.

Reset status to New/Unassigned so someone from the mint team proper will pick it up. Not sure what proper etiquette is here, but if I should be doing something else in a case like this, please let me know. Many thanks.
