The groups section of package management no longer expands out in to sub groups and sub category's, leaving the user to sort thrue hundreds of bugs at times named with names that don't always describe what it dose, to find 1 peace of software they wanted to install but couldn't remember the name of. and or this prevents users from browsing the package selection in a manageable meaningful way that isn't time consuming. This was a feature in SuSe for as long as i have used SuSe sense 7.2 approximately, but it is broken in 11. thanks for your help -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The source code is still there from 10.3 it wont be hard to add this as another option in your drop down menu, if keeping the new non hierarchical display is really important. thank you -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But you have not responded to patrick's proposition: add another option to the dropdown menu (e.g.: Hierarchical package groups), where you can navigate in the hierarhichal list, just like before. I think this is a fair request, because it's much easier to choose from 10-20 package than to choose from 100-200. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Just consider e.g. you are looking for a virtulization solution, but you don't know all that are supported by Suse. You may find, because you already heared of, virtualbox or xen, but you will never find e.g. bochs in your colorful list, although it might be just what you are looking for. In the hierarchical list you just go the virtualization solutions and look whats there. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
