[zypp-devel] RFE: displaying changelog

Hi,

I just subscribed here and didn't follow zypp development that near but
what I always miss (in YaST and zypper) is the possibility to display
the changelog of a package before I install it.

rpm-md keeps the changelog in other.xml.gz so it's available at least
w/o downloading and parsing RPMs and I'd expect that libzypp should be
able to get it "easily". Probably libzypp ignores other.xml currently
and that file can be quite big I guess so I think it would be ok to
process changelogs only by request which also could take a bit of time
but it would be nice to be able to get all relevant information in one
place.

Wolfgang
