So that a single copy paste does the trick. Or even fire itself the zypper command on request. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Usually I only install specific debuginfo (because I know where a crash occurs). With a single install command you lose the library <-> build-id association and are forced to install all missed debuginfo packages ...
So it's not clear to me that this is desired.
Well, a switch can be added so that the displayed text changes as suggested, so that those of us who are not devs but are told to run it in order to fill a bugzilla, can install those hundreds of packages without doing hundreds of copy-pastes. It would be appreciated. Literally hundreds of copy paste operations. It can be a switch, or another command, on screen, on a file... whatever, surely there are many ways you can think about. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
