Patches now have bugzilla and security metadata. I already added support for displaying them in the user interface. However I am thinking on zypper now.
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.
This seems the right implementation, esp. when this information is properly provided in the <references> list.
- Use the solver, and during parsing inject something like provides:fix(bugzilla:23444) when filling the repodata.
Although this looks nice, I fear it won't scale to other bugzillas or other bug reporting tools resp. ids (i.e. CVEs). Klaus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
