-NOTES (new install)
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* TODO Proposals
-** Encode install-prefix in cache-dir name
-** Check whether files are overwritten by egg on installation
-** Allow certain set of trusted programs to be called during install
-    - list in setup.defaults?
-
-* TODO Try more complex eggs
-    - bind (including dependencies)
-
-* TODO .egg files for all C5 eggs
-    - tag using X.Y.Z scheme.
-
-* TODO chicken-do: delete target file if build fails
-    - needs to fork subprocess.
-    - better would be to use temporary for output and then rename.
-        - but then would have to replace occurrence of target in command arguments.
-
-* TODO Remove custom location from setup.defaults
-
-* TODO Separation of d/l step possible?
-    - required to check downloaded content
-
-* TODO Static linking
-    - (chicken) "-static" option - when requiring extension, check if repo contains *.o(bj) file.
-        - mind cross-compilation: use target-repo in target mode (needs to passed to chicken).
-    - csc: drop -static, rename -static-libs to -static (doc) (and pass to chicken).
-    - pass information about used static eggs either in separate file or embedded as comment
-      in C file (first line)
-
-* TODO Rebase on upstream at some stage
-
-* Complete egg-info compilation
-** TODO What should the default optimization options be?
-    - also for compiled import libraries.
-    - respect DEBUGBUILD?
-
-* TODO Option for not fetching/installing dependencies
-    - proposed by wasamasa.
-    - does this make sense?
-
-* Implement minimal "chicken-install"
-** Basic functionality
-*** TODO Repository init (cross-aware)
-    - old-chicken-install.scm://+default-repository-files+/
-*** TODO print repository
-*** TODO Comment all toplevel procedures
-*** TODO Add usage information
-
-* TODO repository-path
-    - allow multiple locations?
-    - perhaps: CHICKEN_INSTALL_REPOSITORY (defaults to install-prefix) as
-      installation target.
-
-* Issues
-** Link-options are passed directly to csc
-    - is this right?
-
-* Suggestion by florz: sign eggs (or hashes) and decode using NaCl
-    - https://tweetnacl.cr.yp.to/software.html
-
-* Setup features
-** TODO Keep binaries + intermediate files ("-k")
-    - needed, since we normally build from cache?
-** TODO "-feature" + "-no-feature"
-** TODO Hack for OSX SIP?
-    - system / DYLD_ vars
-** TODO reinstall?
-** TODO Request by Jon Foerch: allow *.egg in specific subdirectory ("chicken")
-
-* TODO "build-dependencies" 
-    - toplevel deps that are needed during build, override "dependencies", if given.
-    - or is the intent differently? Ask moritz.
-
-* Download/build directories
-** TODO handle egg-files given on command-line
-    - and build in respective directory.
-
-* TODO "-test" implies all tests are run - is this right?
-
-* TODO If THE SYSTEM takes repo-tags as versions, then version-enforcement enforces a remote tag syntax
-
-* TODO Check what cmdline options to retain
-** Option for explicitly generating Windows/UNIX build/install scripts?
-    - i.e. selecting target platform.
-
-* Things to resolve
-** setup-info / egg-info files
-*** one for the whole egg (use "components" to find associated parts).
-*** TODO Fix "extension-information"
-    - drop it completely? we can't locate extensions, just eggs.
-*** TODO syntax-only extensions 
-    - i.e. matchable, miscmacros (is it?)
-*** TODO require-at-runtime?
-
-* TODO Fix loading/linking
-    - needs support by compiler.
-    - see also eval.scm:/##sys#process-require/
-
-* TODO Drop CHICKEN_PREFIX
-    - chicken-prefix and all of its uses.
-
-* Build/install scripts
-** TODO Use "-setup-mode" when invoking csc during build
-    - but that requires csc is run in source-dir.
-** must be fully sh(1) compatible
-    - http://people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/reference/unix/portable_scripting.html
-    - https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/cmd.mspx?mfr=true
-** TODO Test "chicken-do" and port to Windows
-    - ideally, use execvp/CreateProcess
-        - http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/windows/3398/ and
-          http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/1988/3/#msg14102
-** Consider making this powerful enough to build chicken
-    - needs support for object-files (C or Scheme) and building libraries.
-** TODO Handle case where program and extension in egg have same name
-    - e.g. "hyde" in hyde egg.
-    - can we ignore this? if source files have different names, just compiling exe/so directly should
-      work.
-
-* "dependencies" has 2 meanings, depending on nesting level in egg info
-
-* TODO Do we have to cleanup after building eggs?
-
-* "chicken-install -r" retrieves into cache - sufficient?
-
-* TODO Component dependencies need to be converted to filenames
-    - before generating build-commands.
-    - but specific for genfiles (source prop or name), exts, prgs.
-    - dependencies are currently disabled in chicken-do command-generation.
-
-* Tools
-** TODO chicken-status
-    - option to list cached eggs (+ version)
-    - filter egg-info and list components.
-
-* TODO Copyright headers
-    - chicken-do.c  egg-*.scm
-
-* TODO Documentation
-    - document CHICKEN_EGG_CACHE
-    - remove old and obsolete stuff  (dropped options, etc.)
-    - update manual
-    - chicken-do (manpage)
-    - update egg-tutorial on wiki
