I think I'll look into the sysinstall source either this week or the
next and try to find a way to incorporate size estimations in its
output taken from the compiled size list the coupling of patched
pkg_create and patched bsd.port.(%|subdir.)mk generates to complete
the support.

If someone has a good idea where I could place sizes on the screen and
how you think it should look when it finally lists all packages (just
before it starts to install them) and asks if that list is OK that
would be helpful.  Maybe even a "screen shot" modified to show how it
shall look.

To the latter I think putting the size to the left of a package in
KByte and MByte (depending on the size) will be the right thing.  It
will give a nice list of sizes next to the names which should be very
easy to read.  To the former I have no good idea, yet.

Stefan.
