Juan RP 0d8f08e8ea Added support to list and remove orphaned packages.
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.

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.
* Add support to run INSTALL/REMOVE scripts, so that the same actions are
performed in source/bin packages.
* Use current postinstall_helpers to automatically add triggers, shared
by src/bin packages.
Packages:
* fix mpfr hardcoded rpath for gmp.
* Add initscripts, if possible for upstart. Otherwise use the SysV compat
from upstart and make them LSB compliant.
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.
* Check SHA256 hash of pkg and dependencies before installing.
Currently the hash is checked before a pkg is unpacked, this is
suboptimal because if some pkg fails, previous packages will be
installed and therefore unusable. [IN PROGRESS]
* Show binpkg size and installed size for all packages that are going
to be installed before installation happens.
* Add support to update packages.
* While installing a package, check if version that is going to be
installed is already installed.
xbps-repo:
* Replace binpkg-genindex.sh with a target for xbps-repo to generate the
index. The goal is to be able to add/remove a package without having to
create the file from scratch, for performance.
* Add support for remote repositories, requires libfetch.
