People seem to have the odd belief that little to no thought has
gone into the installation process of the package manager. The
reality is of course the opposite.
This commit adds comments to the pkg_install() function hopefully
giving insight into _why_ it works as it does.
Additional rationale for rsync is that it allowed us to drop
fakeroot from the repositories and package system entirely.
Changes 'kiss s' to only show the first match if run from a
subshell. Here's a simple example:
-> kiss s zlib
/home/dylan/projects/repo/core/zlib
/var/db/kiss/installed/zlib
-> echo $(kiss s zlib)
/home/dylan/projects/repo/core/zlib
->
This simply modifies as_root() to allow running commands as any
given user and generates checksums according to the owner of the
checksums file and the current user's write permissions.
kiss-repodepends did not honour the user's KISS_PATH and outputted
the last path it found. If the user has the package installed, the
last path will always be the system database, which defeats the whole
purpose of "repodepends". This patch will use the first path it finds,
which will be the user's preferred repository in the KISS_PATH.

If the user defines KISS_ROOT to / or anything that ends
with '/', some functions will not work as intended (like fixdeps).
This removes the '/' at the very end, if it exists.
