xbps-src:
* Personalized scripts per template to unpack distfiles.
* Multiple URLs to download source distribution files, aliases, etc.
Something like ${sourceforge} to pick up any specified mirror on the list.
* Fix -C flag while building packages via chroot.
Packages:
* fix mpfr hardcoded rpath for gmp.
* Create /etc/issue.
* Add a trigger for fc-cache.
* Add a trigger to (un)register users/groups. Currently packages that
require user/groups use custom INSTALL/REMOVE scripts, which adds
a lot of duplicated work.
* How to handle kernel package upgrades? dpkg seems to keep previous
package and its initramfs, and a dummy package depends on the latest one.
I think this is the best option.
xbps-bin:
* Add support to handle conf_files and keep_dirs from package metadata.
[PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED]
* Add support to install binary packages without any repository.
* Show binpkg size and installed size for all packages that are going
to be installed before installation happens.
* Add a target to update all currently installed packages, like
"apt-get dist-upgrade". [IN PROGRESS]
* Add a flag to reinstall a package version that is already installed,
overwritting files on disk and updating required_by if required.
Perhaps change the automatic-install object to false, like pkg_install
from NetBSD do.
* When checking file hash integrity (with -C files), it doesn't take
into account configuration files.
xbps-repo:
* Add support for remote repositories, requires libfetch.
