Please merge Seifes patch or help him to enhance it. Or drop this stuff which only is of use to Gnome users IIRC.
No. Help KDE Upstream to get their app center finally in a shape as well and stop arguing that this is a GNOME thing. Appstream is intentionally NOT DE-specific
Sorry, this is mumbo jumbo non-sense. The fact that zypper is 'just learning how to interpret the complex data' is a different story - and this needs fixing / training (maybe wise for now to tell zypp not to show such messages except if you're a user that understands what he's doing and that understand appstream - so that the ones actually caring for it can fix it without confusing the others)
IMHO, it a matter of wrong defaults. The cli tool 'zypper' should NOT show such messages unless an option is explicitly set to show this data.
The cli tool is either used by experts, which are able to read "zypper help" or "man zypper" - or - and this is even more dangerous in the way of missinterpration: a casual user, that has no real experiance and/or training in administration of a system.
So, in the interest of KISS, keep that data hidden until explicitly asked for.
That libzypp provides this data is well and good. Just not in default for the cli.
Idea: use a option: "showApplicationData" type "boolean", default "no" in the /etc/zypp/zypper.conf file.
That way all will be happy, and served well.
Have a nice weekend - Yamaban.
That goes pretty much in line with the idea I formulated, you just did a much better job in thinking implementation wise, I only formulated feature wise. We should ensure though that sufficient people switch it on and report on issues - or zypper / libzypp / libsolv won't ever have the chance to fix all the issues (and yes: the bugs reported ARE being worked on) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
