RPM likely also can do this, but IMO should be a piece of zypper as well Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a package 2. Where is the executable to create a shortcut, execute (if not in a natural path) or point another app to it? Gotta know. Actual Results: No install summary, no description where the files were installed. Unable to use zypper so must some other tool. Because both YAST and zypper won't even list the proposed location for the executable before install, you can't know beforehand, too. Expected Results: Would like to see a zypper command which simply reads and displays installed files for a package. If this is to be addressed, might be related to Bug 475672 which requests displaying files prior to download, possibly extracting from the package metadata. But, this is different because the <location> of the files, not simply listing the files is also important. -- 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.
