[opensuse-gnome] Suggestion about package management and GNOME apps menu
- From: "Branko Vukelic" <bg.branko@xxxxxxxxx>
- Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2007 02:38:34 +0200
- Message-id: <3ef409db0710051738q6102aecfs91127de7c3f9b5f6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I have already posted this to the general mailing list
(opensuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx), so my apologies to all that are reading both
this list and the opensuse ml.
Original post:
I see that the applications list (Computer > Applications > More
applications...) is "integrated", so to speak, with the package
manager. The right-click menu gives me an option of removing an
application. That is very nice. However, if I choose that option, it
loads the full package manager, which in turn loads the full package
list from the on-line repos.
IMNSHO, I think that it is not necessary to load the on-line package
lists if I only want to remove an application that is already
installed on the local system. The info needed for removal should
already be on my box. Or am I wrong? If I'm wrong, shouldn't the info
needed to remove a package be available off-line?
