It would be better if applications, when the user tried to use a feature that lacks those extra packages, would at least hint what exact extra packages are missing. Even perhaps trigger yast on a click with those packages selected.
Carlos,
please read my follow-up mail in this thread, which explains what totem (the GNOME Video Player) already does in combination with PackageKit/GNOME-Software.
Yes, I saw that a minute later. Yes, that's the way to do it. However, I was not thinking of multimedia, but rather of any package installation. There are mandatory dependencies which have to be installed, but there are recommends that can be ignored. Later, perhaps months later, when you try to use some feature of that package you notice it does not work. It would be nice if it were possible to automatically suggest that instant to install what is missing, instead of fail with missing symbol or some other cryptic message. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
