just a popup to enter the name of any package to install. Having a list of
packages is possible, too, but you currently have no possibility of
downloading listings via ftp (so either modify ftp(1) or include libfetch

this is already done, but you can't configure it afterwards (e.g. when
upgrading or at any time after the installation once you answered 'no').
