(1) Scout released ================== The first public version of Scout was released. It is a simple tool which allows user to look for (not yet installed) packages using simple queries. For example, which autoconf macros does the package contain, which Java classes are present inside or what binaries does the package provide. Scout packages are available in openSUSE BuildService in home:prusnak:scout project. Look at the introduction[1], installation instructions[2] and demonstration video[3] to get the idea.
I don't know how feasible it is, but incorporating this into PackageKit
would be great - there already exists installation tools that grab the
package for a specific file or mime type, and upstream is developing
support for codecs as well
