|
|
|
Because pkgfiles include everything, many times you're downloading more than what is needed.

|
|
This may seem stupid but pkgfiles are *not* meant to stay on your system.

## Format
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The format is as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
[PKGFILE version (1 byte)][manifest length x 256 (1 byte)][manifest length (1 byte)]
|
|
|
|
|
[manifest (manifest length bytes)]
|
|
|
|
|
[archive]
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
