TODO: global ====== - add i18n (gettext) support - get ride of "ORE" tags. - bring back the autoconf/automake stuff - import libtar code into CVS too, and try to fix glibc dependencies when statically linking libtar? libalpm ======= - remove the dependency with /usr/bin/chroot (implement the chroot handling using the chroot() syscall) - review errors handling (globalise pm_errno usage, improve error meanings) - documentation (doxygen? man pages for public functions? ...) pacman ====== - implement missing functionnalities (mainly handling of package conflicts during packages replacement) - review how things are displayed in the frontend (normal display, verbose mode, which usage for the library log callback, pmo_debug, ...) - add a structure in pacman to hold all the configuration (pmo_root, ...) - add HTTP support for .lastupdate files ADDITIONAL IDEAS FOR PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT ============================================ - idea from Christian Hamar: have a /var/lib/pacman/{repo}/.cache file that basically contains the output of `ls -1 /var/lib/pacman/{repo}`. This cache file could be used in -Q and -Si/s operations to speed up package listings.
