The title says it all. Pacote and the initramfs will be reflected as development on libcmon, more specifically at a cpio package. The installer is plain shell, Korn Shell to be exact, and I can get around it.
Also, I need to start planning how to package some KDE shenanigans-ish-isms, such as udev (eudev), dbus, udisks2, etc; perhaps this will reflect as a clean-up in some base system packages.
