TODO list and thoughts

existing tools:

    pkg_cleanup_distdir:

    pkg_cmp_summary:
       - test for -m
       - -f <p> use pkgpath only for comparison
       - -f <n> use pkgbase only for comparison
       - -f <pn> use pkgbase and pkgpath for comparison

    pkg_list_all_pkgs:

    pkg_micro_src_summary:
       - rewrite it! There is no reason to "emulate" 'make'.
         It is enough to run bmake for cut off Makefile.

    pkg_refresh_summary:

    pkg_src_fetch_var:
       - remove it, see pkg_micro_src_summary

    pkg_src_summary:
       - new option for exit code 0 if everything was done successfully,
         1 otherwise

    pkg_summary4view:

    pkg_update_src_summary:

    pkg_update_summary:
       - use standard 'find -newer' instead of 'ls -1t' and
         non-portable 'test f1 -nt f2'

    pkg_grep_summary:

    pkg_summary2build_graph:

    pkg_summary2bb_pkgs:

new tools?
    - pkg_lint_summary:
         - versions consistency
         - old binaries
         - distfiles checksums
         - check binaries and their REQUIRES and analyse Makefile

    - replacement for lintpkgsrc -m

    - (unsure) additional tool for fields reordering?

    - (unsure) simplified wrapper over pkg_grep_summary for grepping
      packages by their (list of!) PKGBASEs/PKGNAMEs/PKGPATHs
      (look inside pkg_refresh_summary and pkg_update_src_summary)

    - rfc822_to_summary and (?)debian_to_summary(?) for converting an
      information about Debian packages to pkg_summary(5) format.
      For pkg_online database server for Debian packages?

    - pkg_summary2INDEX
      pkg_summary2PKGDB

    - pkg_op_summary <refresh|intersect|subtract>

    - pkg_get_deps
    - pkg_summary2binary

ANY IDEAS? LET ME KNOW
