This looks like a good idea, but pretty much assumes that Update Manager has
a command-line version or that we use something like Maven or Debian's APT
system for managing versioning and dependencies.

I haven't looked at Update Manager in awhile; does anyone know if it can run
headless from the command line?

A lot of other Java-based open-source projects are starting to use Maven for
this; have we looked at it?
