Hi Paul,

I'm looking at the binary database "packages.adb"[1] on the staging server, where on the production server we have the ascii "Packages"[2] file, which lists all of the package info.  Since the ASU server does its own parsing of [2] in the `parse_packages_file` function, are we going to have the build do a translation step to make an equivalent "Packages" or should we add code to the ASU server to use the new "packages.adb" for that?
