In general, I think that the number of options currently supported by aptitude (over 100) and the complexity of its interrelationship is quite high, and I suspect that most users expect that the options that they set in curses mode apply also to the command line, except when named otherwise (there are specific UI and CmdLine options). I think that complicating this a bit more by adding a layer on top can create more problems [1] than it solves [2]. [1] users confused about which changes apply to which mode, or forgetting that settings on one file don't apply to others [2] this is 10 years with no seconds, and I don't recall to see any other bug report requesting this So in principle I am not considering doing this unless there's a compelling reason / example.
So marking as +wontfix and closing, for the reasons above. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
