At least for the dependency solving part, a generic exchange format has emerged: CUDF (http://www.mancoosi.org/cudf/).

Several efficient solvers have been implemented that supports this input format. You can read about it more in http://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Specifying_Solver_Preferences.html...

This is at least used in OPAM (the OCaml package manager) and is also available for apt. If you are implementing a SAT solver for your package manager nowadays, you are doing it wrong. :)
