[Bug 485945] New: software management: please enhance abilities of "file list" to cover also not installed packages
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=485945 Summary: software management: please enhance abilities of "file list" to cover also not installed packages Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- software management: please enhance abilities of "file list" to cover also not installed packages If you would like to search by "file list" criteria (what is inside package) it is only possible for installed packages. However it is possible to fetch the data list for each rpm in advance because rpm provides such capability. So please fetch those data and give users ability to search in file list for all packages. Note: all other criteria work for installed/non-installed packages. So it would be useful also for the sake of consistency. -- 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.

BTW querying every available package for file list at runtime is a nonsense. On the other hand YUM metadata format contains file list, but it's in a separate file which is not downloaded by default because it is HUGE (~50MB for standard installation repo IIRC). Maybe it could be optionally downloaded for selected repositories? -- 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.
