  * fix crash in ouput, thanks to Joerg Schuetter, closes: #535347
  * when running in --debug mode, also print debug output to stderr
  * add --dry-run option to simulate a run, but not actually install
    something
  * when running with --debug, install packages instead of just
    simulating the install, --dry-run is avaialble for simulation
  * check for packages on hold and do not upgrade them (closes: #511677)
