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.
