+ * Try replacing `sed` "arrays" with `eval` "arrays" in `install_find_pkgs()`
+ and `install_get_pkgs()`, using `tr` to sanitize package names (as in
+ opkbuild). Benchmark. This essentially replaces one `sed` command per
+ package (in `install_get_pkgs()`) with two `tr` commands (one per function;
+ no need to convert case as in opkbuild), which should reduce the algorithmic
+ complexity of installations from O(*n*) (where *n* is the number of packages
+ in the archive) to something closer to O(1).
* Add interactive frontend for installers:
- Clean up `install_system()` and `installer-pc` output
+ Maybe write everything to an installation log file in `${root}/var/log/`
