This is a list of Arch related things I would like to keep track of. This is probably of little interest to anyone but me and my stalkers...

Developer Stuff

ABS

• Add -bzr PKGBUILD prototype

Bugs

• My Bugs
• Bug Day TODO list

Python

• Look at Python packaging policy Re: pyc/pyo files
  • Fedora Policy
  • Debian Policy
• Policy Draft

Rebuild Lists For My Packages

• Ncurses (Can be deleted as my rebuild scripts are superior...)
• Python

Misc

• Unimportant Rebuild List
• Base Cleanup

Pacman Stuff

• Roadmap

Bugs I intend to fix one day in the distant future...

• FS#8645 - Restore pacsave files. First attempt at fixing [1]

Scripts for pacman-contrib

• verify install - check packages for missing files and deps.
• List file not under pacman's control - [2] [3] (would be a workaround for FS#13998)
• Repo cleaner - [4] [5]. Note: more options available in pacman-3.2
• File search - [6]. Perhaps too Arch specific.
• tools for dealing with pacman log

Ideas

• Makepkg Test Suite
• Hooks
• Do more with optdepends
• Makepkg VCS overhual
• Add a lot more documentation to the code base
• Increase pactest coverage [7]
• Combine NoUpgrade and NoExtract
• Library for makepkg [8] - not entirely convinced yet... See also [9] & [10]

Gitweb

• Dan
• Xavier
• Nagy
• Me
