Feature changed by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) Feature #305548, revision 36 Title: YaST-Qt: More informative "Installation Summary" openSUSE-11.2: Rejected by Christoph Thiel (cthiel1) reject date: 2009-10-27 15:56:50 reject reason: -ENOTIMELEFT for 11.2. Priority Requester: Desirable Projectmanager: Desirable openSUSE-11.3: Rejected by Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) reject reason: 11.3 is already released Priority Requester: Desirable - openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed + openSUSE-11.4: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Stephan Binner (beineri) Product Manager: (Novell) Project Manager: (Novell) Engineering Manager: (Novell) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The YaST Qt package manager should provide as much information in the "Installation Summary" view as zypper, esp the overall download size to expect and how much disk space will be freed/used after performing the operation. Discussion: #1: Roberto Mannai (robermann79) (2009-01-16 20:03:59) I also think it is very useful. See also this enhancement request: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=399239 I proposed a patch to yast-devel ML some time ago. #3: Roberto Mannai (robermann79) (2009-05-08 14:38:08) (reply to #1) The path is also linked here: https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=239300 #2: Dimitris Tzellis (dimtz) (2009-04-18 23:44:57) Another way to make YAST more informative is if window titles reflect the opened module. Currently, any window YAST opens is called YAST2 and that isn't really guiding the user. Ideally, when I click on the "Program Installation" module, the window that pops up will be titled "Program Installation" and once I click "Accept" the window title should indicate the progress of the installation process i.e. 45%. #4: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-06-24 11:36:26) unless someone storms forward with a patch, I don't think we'll be able to implement this. The contact forum is zypp-devel as far as I'm aware. #5: Roberto Mannai (robermann79) (2009-06-24 12:05:36) (reply to #4) Regarding the "how much disk space will be freed/used after performing the operation" issue, a patch was proposed on https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=239300. The yast- devel ML received the patch on 22 Aug 2008, see http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2008-08/msg00059.html. #6: Roberto Mannai (robermann79) (2009-11-19 15:49:23) See also https://features.opensuse.org/307743 #7: Roberto Mannai (robermann79) (2009-11-30 20:04:29) Reopening becouse I still think this feature would be worthwhile. Maybe you can close it with another reason besides "not enough time" :) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305548
