Hi,

An user may want to say zypper "install the fix for bugzlla 3223".

We have 2 ways to implement this, and I would like to hear your feedback:

- use the current metadata to search for the issue and mark packages for
install. This will need some "look" code in each application.

It will simply require a query.

- Use the solver, and during parsing inject something like
provides:fix(bugzilla:23444) when filling the repodata. Then applications
could inject a requires in the solver fix(bugzilla:23444) and just solve. I
dont't know the consequences of this.

I don't think this would be a good idea.


Ciao,
Michael.
