 ### Project Status
 
-This project was renamed to `pacman-debian` at v7.1.0. It is functional for
-day-to-day package management on Debian-based distributions. Key features:
-
-- **Performance**: `packages.idx` index enables sub-second single-package
-  lookup. `-Ss` scans index only (no JSON parsing). Full `-Sl` uses index
-  seek. ~64k packages across all repos, cached.
-- **Parallel sync**: Repos sync concurrently with per-repo progress display.
-  HTTP conditional requests (304) skip unchanged repos.
-- **i18n**: Full Chinese and English localization via `$LANG` detection.
-  Controlled by JSON message catalogs at `src/i18n/`.
-- **Color**: Respects `Color` option in `pacman.conf [options]`. Matching
-  official pacman color scheme (magenta=repo, green=pkg, red=error).
-- **Root check**: Moved into CLI code — query commands (`-Q`, `-Ss`, `-Si`,
-  `-Sp`, `-Rp`) work without root. Write operations require `sudo`.
-- **Link system** (`paclink`): Debian→Arch virtual package name mappings stored
-  as local DB entries (`repoType: link`). Real repo packages automatically
-  take precedence over links during install. Links are only visible to
-  pacman/libalpm, not dpkg.
-- **Scoped i18n**: Each tool (pacman, paclink, setup) loads its own translation
-  file at first use, reducing cold-start overhead. Languages: en, zh-CN.
-
-Key limitations:
-
-- **Arch ARM binary repos require glibc 2.38+** — Debian 12 ships 2.36.
-  Local `makepkg` builds work fine.
-- **yay/AUR**: libalpm stub library enables package search and dependency
-  resolution, but complex AUR dependency chains may fail due to Debian/Arch
-  package naming differences.
-- **No AUR helper integration** beyond yay (paru, pamac, etc. untested).
+Functional for day-to-day package management on Debian-based distributions.

-
-## Configuration
-
-Configuration file: `/etc/pacman-debian/pacman.conf`
-
-The configuration uses pure Arch Linux pacman syntax with `Include` directives.
-Repo-specific keys (`Type`, `Dist`, `Components` for Debian repos) go in
-included files under `/etc/pacman.d/`.
-
-Example config:
-
-```ini
-[options]
-Architecture = auto
-
-[bookworm]
-Include = /etc/pacman.d/debian-bookworm
-
-[extra]
-Include = /etc/pacman.d/arch-extra
-```
-
-Include file example (`/etc/pacman.d/debian-bookworm`):
-
-```
-Server = https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/debian
-Type = debian
-Dist = bookworm
-Components = main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
-```
-
-Include file for Arch repos (`/etc/pacman.d/arch-extra`):
-
-```
-Server = http://mirror.archlinuxarm.org/$arch/$repo
-Type = arch
-Architecture = auto
-```
-
-A symlink at `/etc/pacman.conf` → `/etc/pacman-debian/pacman.conf` is created
-during setup for compatibility with tools that hardcode this path (e.g., yay).
-
-Use `pacman-conf` to view the parsed configuration with all `Include` files
-resolved and `$repo`/`$arch` variables substituted:
-
-```bash
-$ pacman-conf
-# pacman-debian configuration
-[options]
-Architecture = auto
-
-[bookworm]
-Server = https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/debian
-Type = debian
-Dist = bookworm
-Components = main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
-
-[extra]
-Server = http://mirror.archlinuxarm.org/$arch/$repo
-Type = arch
-Architecture = auto
-```
-

-### Database
-
-#### Local database: `/var/lib/pacman-debian/local/`
-
-Uses a directory-per-package format matching Arch Linux's local DB:
-
-```
-/var/lib/pacman-debian/local/
-├── index.json       # name → dir mapping (base64 encoded paths)
-├── by-name/
-│   ├── fastfetch -> ../fastfetch-2.64.2-2/
-│   └── ...
-├── fastfetch-2.64.2-2/
-│   ├── desc          # JSON metadata (name, version, deps, size, etc.)
-│   └── files         # File manifest
-└── ...
-```
-
-A flat `index.json` file maps package names to their directories (one `name:base64path`
-per line). This is the primary lookup path for removals and queries, and is
-automatically rebuilt from the filesystem if missing or corrupted.
-
-#### dpkg compatibility
-
-Packages installed via `dpkg` or `apt` are read directly from
-`/var/lib/dpkg/status` at query time (mtime-cached). When `pacman-debian`
-installs a package, it writes a dpkg-compatible entry ensuring `apt` and `dpkg`
-still see the package.
-
-#### Repository cache: `/var/cache/pacman-debian/packages/`
-
-Each repository is cached in JSON Lines chunks (5000 packages per `.jsonl`
-file). During sync, a `packages.idx` index is also built — one line per
-package, sorted globally, with format `pkgname description\tprovides\tchunk\toffset`.
-
-```
-/var/cache/pacman-debian/packages/
-├── bookworm/
-│   ├── 00000.jsonl   # JSON Lines, ~5000 pkg per chunk
-│   ├── ...
-│   └── packages.idx  # Global sorted index (tabs, ~200KB)
-└── ...
 ```
 
-#### Memory Index Cache
+See [Installation](docs/en/installation.md) for details.
 
-`packages.idx` is cached in memory after first read, keyed by repo name + mtime:
-
-```
-_idxCache = new Map<string, IdxEntry>();
-IdxEntry { lines: string[], mtime: number, providesIndex: Map<string, Array<{chunkFile, offset}>> }
-```
-
-- Subsequent `-S`/`-Ss`/`-Sl` operations read from memory, no disk I/O
-- `providesIndex` is an inverted index: `provides name → [{ chunkFile, offset }]`
-  - `findProvider()` does O(1) `Map.get()` for provides lookups
-- `pacman -Syy` clears the cache (`invalidateIdxCache()`)
-- After incremental sync, idx file mtime changes → auto reload
-
-**Lookup paths:**
-
-| Operation | Method | Why |
-|-----------|--------|-----|
-| `-S <pkg>` / `-Qo` | Binary search `packages.idx` → seek JSONL | O(log N), single line read |
-| `-Ss` | Line-scan `packages.idx` (name + desc) → seek JSONL | ~1.4MB scan, no JSON parse |
-| `-Sl` | Read `packages.idx` → seek each pkg | Lazy-load via index |
-| Dependency provides | Scan `packages.idx` provides field | Index-only, no JSON parse |
-| `-Qi` / `-Ql` | dpkg status or localdb | No cache involved |
-
-### Repository Support
-
-- **Debian/Ubuntu**: Reads `Packages.gz` / `Packages.xz` from standard
-  repository indices. Supports `$repo`/`$arch` variable substitution in
-  `Server` URLs.
-- **Arch Linux**: Reads `db.tar.gz` from Arch-compatible repositories.
-  Downloaded `.pkg.tar.zst` files are extracted and installed.
-- **Arch ARM**: Binary packages require glibc 2.38+ — most Debian-based
-  distributions ship glibc 2.36 or older, so Arch ARM binary repos are
-  **unusable** without a glibc upgrade (which will likely break the system).
-  Use `makepkg` for local builds instead.
-
-### libalpm C Library (libpac4deb)
-
-A C library at `lib/pac4deb/` that implements the libalpm ABI (`alpm.h`),
-allowing Go-based AUR helpers like `yay` to work on Debian without
-modification. It reads:
-
-- Local database (`/var/lib/pacman-debian/local/`) — packages installed by
-  pacman-debian
-- dpkg status (`/var/lib/dpkg/status`) — system packages from apt/dpkg
-- Sync databases (`/var/cache/pacman-debian/packages/*/` — JSONL chunks)
-
-Over 200 stubs are provided for rarely-used functions.
-
-Key implementation details:
-
-- **packages.idx binary search (C)**: `alpm_db_get_pkg` and `alpm_find_dbs_satisfier`
-  use binary search on the sorted index, then read a single JSONL line by byte
-  offset — no full JSONL loading.
-- **Auto-register sync DBs**: `ensure_syncdbs` scans `/var/cache/pacman-debian/packages/`
-  on first `alpm_get_syncdbs`, registering all available repos lazily.
-- **Package DB pointer**: `pkg_internal.db` field tracks owning database;
-  `alpm_pkg_get_db` returns it, preventing `DB().Name()` nil dereference.
-- **idx-based search**: `alpm_db_search` scans index lines for pattern matching
-  instead of loading all packages. ~1.5s for -Ss with 6 repos / 15k packages.
-- **dpkg Provides parsing**: `load_dpkg_status` reads the `Provides:` field from
-  dpkg status, so Debian packages that declare virtual names (e.g. `7zip` → `p7zip`)
-  are discoverable by yay via `alpm_pkg_has_provide`.
-- **Local DB fallback**: `alpm_find_dbs_satisfier` searches the local database
-  (via `alpm_find_satisfier`) after sync DBs, matching both package names and
-  provides — yay can find `gnutls` via `libgnutls30t64`'s mapped provides.
-- **find_in_idx provides scan**: After binary search by package name fails,
-  scans the `provides` column of `packages.idx` so sync DB provides are matched
-  (e.g. `libz.so` → `zlib` in Arch repos).
-- **dpkg -S fallback**: For `lib*.so` SONAMEs not found anywhere, forks `dpkg -S`
-  to locate the owning Debian package at runtime.
-- **Debian alternatives**: at local DB load time, checks `/etc/alternatives/` for
-  `sh`, `awk`, `vi`, `editor` etc. and adds virtual provides to the owning package.
-
-### Dependency Engine
-
-The dependency resolver (`src/core/deps.ts`) handles:
-
-- Package name parsing with version constraints (`>=`, `<=`, `=`)
-- OR dependencies (`|`)
-- Architecture qualifiers (e.g. `:arm64`, `:amd64`)
-- Both Debian (comma-separated) and Arch (space-separated) formats
-- BFS resolution with pre-loaded DB state
-- Conflict detection across installed and to-be-installed packages
-- System package protection (glibc, libc6, etc.)
-
-- File validation: installed packages with no real files on disk (empty
-  directories only) are considered NOT installed, forcing re-download.
-- Explicit targets always have their dependencies processed even if the
-  target itself is already installed.
-- Queue uses `shift()` to pop processed items, preventing memory accumulation.
-
-#### Performance Optimizations
-
-| Technique | Description |
-|-----------|-------------|
-| **idx memory cache** | `findInRepo()` binary search on `_idxCache.lines[]` in memory, no file read (`src/repo/repository.ts:58`) |
-| **provides inverted index** | `providesIndex` built at idx load time, `findProvider()` does `Map.get()` O(1) (`src/repo/repository.ts:69`) |
-| **BFS + cursor** | Dependency queue uses index pointer instead of `shift()` to avoid array collapse overhead (`src/core/deps.ts:74`) |
-| **resolved set dedup** | `Set<string>` prevents re-resolving the same dependency (`src/core/deps.ts:73`) |
-| **batch head-tail scan** | `batchFindInRepo()` binary searches sorted idx from both ends simultaneously (`src/repo/repository.ts`) |
-| **keep-alive HTTP** | Shared `https.Agent({ keepAlive: true, maxSockets: 8 })`, reuses TCP/TLS connections (`src/repo/repository.ts:22`) |
-| **async .gz decompress** | `decompressAsync()` uses `zlib.gunzip()` callback, non-blocking (`src/core/compress.ts:9`) |
-| **304 conditional requests** | Sync sends `If-Modified-Since`, server returns 304 → skip (`src/repo/repository.ts:96`) |
-
-#### Delete Dependency Handling (`src/ops/remove.ts`)
-
-| Operation | Logic |
-|-----------|-------|
-| `-R` | Remove specified package only, no dep handling |
-| `-Rs` | Remove package + recursive orphan find (not RequiredBy any other pkg), reverse-topological order |
-| `-Rc` | Cascade: find all packages that "require" the target, remove together |
-| `-Rsc` | Recursive + cascade combination |
-| `-Rn` | Backup conffiles from `/var/lib/dpkg/info/<pkg>.conffiles` as `.dpkg-old`, then remove |
-
-Removal auto-sorts: dependents first (leaves before roots), so dependency
-checks don't error. `isRequiredByOthers()` scans all installed packages'
-`Depends` fields to determine if the target is needed.
-
-### makepkg (`src/makepkg/`)
-
-A standalone `makepkg` implementation that builds Arch Linux packages from
-PKGBUILDs without requiring `base-devel` or any Arch tools.
+## Quick Start
 
 ```bash
-# Build a package from a PKGBUILD
-cd /path/to/PKGBUILD/dir
-makepkg --syncdeps --install
-```
-
-Features:
+# Search
+pacman -Ss neofetch
 
-- Parses PKGBUILD via bash sourcing (`source PKGBUILD`) — supports all
-  standard variables (`pkgname`, `pkgver`, `source`, `depends`, `makedepps`,
-  `sha256sums`, etc.)
-- Downloads and verifies source files (supports http/https URLs with checksum
-  verification)
-- Extracts archives: `.tar.gz`, `.tar.xz`, `.tar.bz2`, `.tar.zst`, `.zip`
-- Runs `prepare()`, `build()`, `check()`, and `package()` functions in a clean
-  environment
-- Creates `.pkg.tar.zst` archives with valid `.PKGINFO` metadata
-- Dependency resolution via `--syncdeps` — installs missing dependencies
-  through pacman-debian's sync databases (Debian and Arch repos)
-- Supports `--install` (`-i`), `--clean` (`-c`), `--rmdeps`
