 Things to do for opkg, in a partial order:
 
-0) Play with configure to check for strdup/strndup ( to works with replace/replace.h stuffs )
+1) Bug fixes
 
-1) Fix incompatibilities between current C-based opkg and original
-sh-based opkg.
+1.a) fix all code marked "XXX: BUG"
 
-1.a) Fix opkg.conf options for http_proxy and friends. DONE:
-     http_proxy tested, (ftp_proxy, no_proxy, proxy_user, and
-     proxy_passwd have not been tested).
+1.b) fix all outstanding opkg bugzilla bugs
 
-1.b) Fix export of PKG_ROOT during pkg_run_script. DONE: tested.
-
-1.c) Fix so that a src with file:// is supported. DONE: tested.
-
-1.d) Fix paths in list files. DONE: tested.
-
-1.e) Fix offline_root mode. DONE: tested.
-
-2) Release opkg as opkg, (no longer as opkg-unstable). This depends on
-   all of (1) being DONE. Although I might let this release proceed
-   without offline_root --- only Jamey will complain. ;-)

-3) Bug fixes

-3.a) fix all code marked "XXX: BUG"

-3.b) fix all outstanding opkg bugzilla bugs

-3.c) conffiles support seems broken again. It's prompting on just
-     about every file. It might be because of file names beginning
-     with "///".
-        FIXED the "///" problem, (seemed harmless though), in 0.99.2
-        FIXED a problem with conffiles with -force-reinstall in 0.99.2.
-        This seems to be mostly working now, (I have seen strange
-        prompting on one out of the three ssh conffiles, maybe the
-        postinst script changed it? Hmmm... and something is going on
-        with pcmcia-cs too. Mysterious.)

      some of these are not yet implemented)

-3.h) "opkg status" and "opkg info" need to complain about unknown
+1.e) "opkg status" and "opkg info" need to complain about unknown
   packages. For that matter, these two commands should probably just
   become aliases to the same functionality.
 
-  Jamey thinks opkg status should be brief give one line per package, while
-  opkg info can continue to be verbose. 7/23/2002.
 
-3.i) Currently "opkg install foo" will upgrade foo if possible. The
-  "Package foo is already installed" check needs to be moved up to
-  avoid this.
+2) Implement new features
 
-  Jamey thinkgs that "opkg install foo" should upgrade foo.  7/23/2002.

      check old post "Subject: Reinventing opkg" to see if we forgot
      any of the good ideas we had once upon a time)
