Rodrigo Ramírez Norambuena 6737ded058 install_prereq: Check if is installed aptitude otherwise to install.
If in Debian or system based, dont have aptitude installed the script do
nothing. This patch checked if aptitude  installed, if not installed.

Also, if execute script with all packages installed yet, the script not show
nothing and return exit 1 because the command 'grep' get nothing from pipe from
'awk'.

messages-expire.pl

messages-expire finds messages more than X days old and deletes them. 
Because the older messages will be the lower numbers in the folder (msg0000
will be older than msg0005), just deleting msg0000 will not work. 
expire-messages then runs a routine that goes into every folder in every
mailbox to reorganize.  If the folder contains msg0000, no action is taken. 
If the folder does not, the rename routine takes the oldest message and
names it msg0000, the next oldest message and names it msg0001 and so on.

The file deletion is done by the -exec parameter to 'find'.  It would be far
more efficient to take the output from 'find' and just reorganize the
directories from which we deleted a file.  Something for the future...

Keep in mind that messages are deleted at the beginning of the script you
will have mailbox trouble if you check messages before the script
reorganizes your mailbox.

To use it, make sure the paths are right.  Adjust $age (originally set to
31) if necessary.
