The first steps +will focus around package management with pkg-ng. + +# Bootstrapping + +The current Bootstrap process is very apt-centric, so current efforts +are focusing on passing the System information down into Bootstrap. + +Affected functions are: + +* `installGitCommand`, which has to install pkg itself, then install + git. The `ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES` environment variable must be set so pkg + will just do its thing. + +* `depsCommand`, which installs as many Haskell dependencies from the + system package manager. We also install gmake, but I'm not sure + where this is used yet. |
