Then we should keep kpackage, but remove the others that don't work. I
don't see the point of a tool to administrate your init system if it
doesn't work anyways. For kpackage, I think it's not so hard to get it
working with pacman, but I'm not sure about that (some KDE code is
ancient and is even more complicated and messy than GNOMEs bonobo API)
