====== Top priority projects for DeLi Linux 0.8.x ======




===== Make a lightweight Pacman =====
Pacman needs a lot of memory, therefore our goal is to  create a "minipac.sh" (working title). The aim is to use a subset of Pacman's features in order to use much less memory. 


**Requirements**

  * 100% compatible to Pacman package format

  * Must-have-features: installation and removal of packages. 
    * Should make correct entries to /var/lib/pacman. 
    * Should honor backup flag (i. e. not overwrite existing config files)

  * Nice-to-have: dependency resolution. Maybe in a later version.

  * Extracting with existing tools (tar, gzip)

  * Fetching of files with wget

----
You can find a working minipac shell script at: http://www.delilinux.org/misc

This version is able to install packages (with "-U") and make correct entries in the Pacman database. It is also able to remove packages previously installed with the minipac.sh package manager.

It doesn't honor backup parameter yet.

 


===== Translate delitools =====
deliinstall and delisetup should be translated in different languages.
We need translators.
