-== This is my custom TODO file ==
-
-* transaction object should contain two package list (install and remove)
- instead of a single list of syncpkgs - this should allow us to get rid of that
- type. This also requires seperate functionality to return a list of
- "replaces" packages to the front end, so the frontend can handle the QUESTION()
- stuff in that case
-
-* libalpm -> front end communication needs a work-up. Both progress functions
- can be combined into one callback, IFF we adjust it to accept a prefix string
- for the progress bars, and format it at the lib side. Question functions
- should also do the same - create the string at the library side, and simply
- call some sort of int yes_no = ask_question("Do foo with bar?");
-
-* move logging (alpm_logaction) out of the library. log files should be
- written by the app, not the library. Adding a PM_LOG_* constant that
- frontends can recognize and send to a file is probably a good idea.
-
-* clear up list allocation/deallocation - some lists need to be free'd, some
- do not and there is no clear indication WHEN this should happen.
-
-* remove DB entries (directories) on a read error?
-
-* Add a pm_errstr error string, which will allow us to do things like:
- pm_errno = PM_ERR_LIBARCHIVE;
- pm_errstr = archive_error_string(archive);
- or:
- pm_errno = PM_ERR_LIBDOWNLOAD;
- pm_errstr = downloadLastErrString;
- This way we don't break abstraction when returning specific errors in
- cases like the above.
-
-* pacman: A LOT of functions are way too long. There should be an upper limit of
- 100-200 lines. _alpm_add_commit is around 600 lines, and is far too complex.
-
-* pacman: fixup doxygen documentation for public interface
-
-* feature for 3.1: package file hooks *
- I've been planning on this one for some time. Here's a simple rundown:
- in /etc/pacman.d/hooks:
- Hook /usr/include/* : /usr/bin/ctags -R /usr/include/*.h -f /usr/include/systags
- This will allow us to make "global hooks" to simplify a lot of repetitive
- install files (scrollkeeper, depmod, etc). This also allows us to move
- ldconfig out of pacman entirely.
- possible: /etc/pacman.hooks/* files for hooks, so packages can add them too
-
-* feature for 3.1: multiple search/match types
- option: MatchType regex (current way)
- MatchType fnmatch (use fnmatch to match things like 'pacman -S gnome*')
- MatchType plain (no matching. expect plain text).
-
-* feature for 3.1: revamp the autotools system. I'd LOVE to use a manual system
- like wmii and friends do. It'd be real nice if we could just do away with
- autotools altogether.
-
-**** BUGS ****
-* Removal of conflicts on -A and -U (INCOMPLETE)
