Ok, the original bug is just that "currently installed version" and "source" are shown
in the
wrong modes. "Currently installed version" only makes sense in upgrade mode, and
"source"
only makes sense in install or upgrade mode. Earlier patches attempted to fix this,
later ones
got it right (and did other things).
Also, these pieces of info are short, and helpful/informative. Right now they get
stuck at the
bottom (after the description anyway), when they are very useful, and won't confuse
anybody.
It makes much more sense to show them in normal info. mode, and show them up closer to
the
top so people actually see them. I also have another reason for doing this, in
preparation for
one more thing I'm working on. So later patches address the ordering of things to be
more
sensible and useful.
Finally, the latest patch cleans up the MandrakeUpdate interfaces, and makes it more
readable
and usable.

description:
In the information window for maximal information, two pieces of information shown
there
include:
1) source - where a package can be installed from (only useful in rpmdrake)
2) currently installed version - which version can be removed or upgraded (only useful
in
rpmdrake-remove or MandrakeUpdate).
The code was probably attempting to do this, but got mixed up. Currently instead, all
pieces of
info only get shown in regular rpmdrake mode, and the currently installed version is
obviously
"(none)."
I will attach a patch to fix it.
