This is rpmdrake-1.3-75mdk

1. Packages that are installed due to dependencies are not removed from
the list of updated packages in the rpmdrake. Example - I select
"updated only" in rpmdrake; mark cups and press install. rpminst now
tells me that I have to install libcups - I say O.K. both are installed
but libcups still listed in rpmdrake as updated. When I try to install
it I get "everything is already installed". It was not the case with
older version (the last one that worked :-)

2. OTOH when installation fails, packages are removed from the list as
if they were installed. I just tried to install gtkhtml that requires
libgal8 that has a conflict with libgal7. I pressed "Cancel" when asked
to install and rpmdrake still removed gtkhtml from the list of new
packages. This was always the case.

3. I'd like to be able to switch between flat file list and new tree
view in file list.

4. The window for package information (specificall description) is too
small by default and hard to read. It was larger before.

5. ChangeLog is still empty for new packages (even for local source). If
it is intended for installed packages only - is it possible to remove
this tab when we are viewing installable packages?

6. Layout of rpminst has changed - it was in single window before, now
it opens many small windows (speciically for progress bar). I liked the
old one more. It is confiusing - main rpminst window says "you can see
status *below*" but it is not below - it can be anywhere :-) It just
clutters screen and does not make it obvious where to search for next
output.

But it really works again and is nice. Good job!
