This is not visible in Qt UI, because it (unlike ncurses) displays patterns in categories (e.g. base technologies, desktop functions etc.) and sorts them according to order number within those categories. Multimedia and kde3/4 patterns are in different category, thus they never appear close to each other. Unfortunately, ncurses packagemanager knows nothing about pattern categories as ncurses UI lacks support for tables with subsections (categories), thus it has no means to visualize it. So I see two possible solutions here: 1. File a feature request so that ncurses packagemanager supports sorting patterns not only by order but also by category, just like Qt UI does 2. Reopen the bug and reassign it to whomever is responsible for pattern definition in the repository (for oS 11.1 I guess it's Coolo) so that the order numbers of patterns are changed into something more meaningful I'm sorry, wontfix for me now ... -- 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.

It is a good approximation of what Qt UI does, but as curses must use different data structures, still only an approximation. So the sorting might come out the same, or it might not. But I hope it is more meaningful now -- 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.
