[pacman-dev] Color patch again

[Xavier]

Thanks for bringing this back, I also wanted to hear the status of this.

But I believe pacman still requires a lot of cleaning / refactoring in
many places, so not sure if it's ready for getting new features.
It should really depend on the parts of the code affected by this
patch, how ready they are, and also how this patch implements this
feature.
Dan and Aaron should be more able to answer this than me..

Seems like pacman development has slowed down a lot, compared to the
beginning of this year, while there is still so much to do :(
