DetailsDescription:
When there is 'Color' option set in pacman.conf, could pacman use colours when printing information about optional dependences when installing packages, and querying for installed packages. Namely use bold-cyan for the "[installed]" text, as in 'pacman -Ss'. Perhaps also the not installed optional dependences could be marked with, say, yellow? Below I include example output and I mark lines I'm thinking about: $ sudo pacman -S xfig resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... Packages (1): xfig-3.2.5c-2 Total Installed Size: 15.21 MiB :: Proceed with installation?
