+Simple helper scripts that parses a package list in json format
+(as required by linuxparty.py) and prints the relevant information
+(as required by lipck) in a simple table format.
+Afterwards, this table can be used by lipck and its bash helper
+scripts that do not have a build in json parser like python.
