The following components are available at the moment:

timeconfig
-
xwmconfig
All of these can be listed and started from the central setup command.

libparted

3. How to set it up
3.1. If you got the sources from git
First, you need to do a make prepare first.
Second, if you want to get the translations from git as well, then you need to:
$ git clone git://git.frugalware.org/pub/other/translations
You are expected to do this in $HOME/git, but you can overwrite this path using the PO_DIR make variable.
3.2. The usual part
You probably want to use these utilities before /usr is available, so the recommended commandline switches are:
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin --libdir=/lib \
--libexecdir=/usr/libexec
$ make
# make install
4. What needs to be done (aka. TODO)
-
Let netconfig start/stop more verbose (maybe some initscript-like OK/FAILED?)
5. I would like to have support for …
If something does not work, then please report the issue to the bug tracking system.
6. Known bugs
