--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.3-4 Severity: wishlist I mostly keep my systems on stable. When I upgrade to a new version, the New Packages folder in aptitude has thousands of entries. I am not going to succeed in reviewing all of those before the next time my nightly apticron does an update and potentially adds entries to the folders I thought I'd already reviewed; unless I start at the beginning each day (in which case I'll never reach the end) I'll miss some entries. It would be nice if there were some way of marking the entries I *have* reviewed (and decided whether to install) as "no longer new" without forgetting all the ones I *haven't* yet reviewed. For example: by analogy with f to forget all, F could forget the newness of the item currently selected; that may be a single package or it may be a folder. In the latter case, naturally, the contents of that folder are to be marked as no longer new. (Obviously, if F is already in use to mean some other thing, pick some other suitable key.) This would make it possible to do a rolling review of all new packages when I upgrade; each day I'd review some of the outstanding new packages and F these; the next day, apticron has updated the package list, so some new entries may have appeared in the folders I F'd last time; because I did F what I have reviewed, only these new entries are present in those folders, so I don't have to wade through what was already there to notice them. While it may take a long time to wade through thousands of packages, this at least makes the task feasible without suppressing everything that might update the package list for the duration of the time it takes to review them all. As it is, I either forget thousands of new packages without every reviewing them or never get round to reviewing the thousands of packages new in the new release - either way, I don't actually get to know about fancy new things someone has taken lots of time and effort to make available to me. -- Package-specific info: aptitude 0.6.3 compiled at Apr 2 2011 22:19:05 Compiler: g++ 4.5.2 Compiled against: apt version 4.10.1 NCurses version 5.8 libsigc++ version: 2.2.4.2 Ept support enabled.
