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.

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.

* If any dep of a package cannot be found in the repository pool,
show it on xbps-bin.
* Add the automatic-install boolean obj into pkg's dictionary
on regpkgdb.plist, this will be used to implemented something
like "apt-get autoremove".

New changes include a modified algorithm of the previous one, which
finally does not fail even with multiple repos, YAY!
Fixed some leaks as well, thanks to valgrind.

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.

This implementation will be faster and resolv the dependency chain
correctly taking into account indirect/direct deps and priority.

- Remove lib/info.c that doesn't belong in the lib and add it into the
bins.
- Every binary now uses its own directory on bin/.
This is in preparation for future changes for correct behaviour of
the library and binaries.

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

All xbps metadata files will go into <rootdir>/var/cache/xbps
and package data will go into <rootdir>/<data>.

At least now dependencies are tracked, not sure it will be
enough for real life :-)
