A new target has been added to xbps-bin: autoremove. It works in
the same way than 'apt-get', but there's no stdin input. By default
it will list you all orphaned packages, and -f flag must be set
to really remove them.
The following is a real example for the git package, which requires
directly perl and curl-libs, and indirectly libidn and openssl.
$ xbps-bin -r ~/testing-xbps remove git
Removing package git-1.6.1.3 ... done.
$
$ xbps-bin -r ~/testing-xbps autoremove
The following packages were installed automatically
(as dependencies) and aren't needed anymore:
perl-5.10.0 curl-libs-7.19.0 libidn-1.10 openssl-0.9.8j
If you are really sure you don't need them, use -f to confirm.
$

Now if any package is going to be removed and it's required by
other packages, it won't let you remove it unless -f is set.
Here's an example of how it looks like:
[juan@fedora-vm xbps]$ xbps-bin -r ~/testing-xbps remove glibc

* If a dir is listed in $keep_dirs it won't be removed (anyway any
directory that is not empty won't either).
* If a config file hasn't been modified (SHA256 hash matches) the
file will be removed, otherwise it won't be removed.
There's still missing support to handle new configuration files when
there's an existing file, but will do later.

Some other changes related for this:
- Modify binpkg.sh to always insert the INSTALL script at head of
the archive, and appending files after it.
- Modify binpkg.sh to compress binpkgs with bzip2 -9 to save some bytes.

This currently checks:
- While removing, any file is checked and if hash doesn't match the
file is ignored and not removed.
- While installing, if a binary pkg file doesn't match with the one
reported by the repository's pkg index file, the process will be
stopped.

The list of build dependencies is shown, and if any of them
has deps, the list is shown for it and so on. This has the effect
of installing the deps in the order that they were specified
in the template, at the expense of a minor performance ratio.

This fixes all cases that previous code has with no changes...
sorry pancake.

The reason is that fakeroot can't read files that have restrictive
perms and you'd have to change them before the src installation, and
restoring them at binpkg pre-installation.
I prefer to avoid all this and build the pkg with appropiate perms.

This algorithm works for all packages currently usable on xbps.
Previous code didn't take into account the correct order between
indirect and direct deps.

There are two scripts that can be used now:
- prepost-inst: for pre/post actions at installation.
- prepost-rm: for pre/post actions at removal.

Because in theory any shell script or executable program might run,
and therefore the .sh extension is wrong.

For now all is handled in a script "prepost-action.sh" in package's
metadata directory, with a target in the shell script.
