Martin, I see that you have some experience with sessioninstaller in the past. Would you mind taking a look at what's missing to port this to python3?

sessioninstaller needs python-xapian, so a full port to Python3 needs a python3-xapian. Adding task.

However, there is a fallback to work without xapian, using the normal apt/dpkg DB. That's a tad slower, but as users will see sessioninstaller maybe three times in their life, that's ok I think.
