Seems to be a good place to add some wishes about repository management:
1) Currently it is possible to add repositories having the same URL more than
once. This especially happens, when you e.g. have already some repositories
configured and then add from the "Community Repositories" - in the process of
adding the new repository you can't see it beforehand when you are about to add
an already registered repo. Would be better, if same URL could not be added
more than once.
2) Repositories have at least "name", "alias" and "description" tags. When
adding a repository the "name" may be set by the user, but not the "alias". It
is automatically derived from the "name" or by a different automatism, I don't
know. Unfortunalely the "alias" is shown within error messages or when
describing the repository in the versions list of packages. This makes it
really hard for the user to see, where the package finally comes from: the user
never sees URL and alias together.
Solution:
- let the user edit the "alias" too
- show "name" and/or URL of repo also in error messages and so on, maybe "name"
must be unique then too (should be anyways, this is related to (1))
