Hi GC, did you have a nice vacation (deduced from your absence)?

If I might add to this, even for beginners, searching for a file is _very_ important.
Sometimes
people miss a file, and it can be very hard finding out which rpm it is in (rpmfind is
often no help).
Maybe you can add a simple checkbox saying 'search for file/description'?
Another thing is that I really could use a 'cancel' button if rpmdrake presents me
with the message
that package x y z will all so be installed (because maybe I really do not want them,
and decide that
the current app isn't so important at all). Now there is no cancel, and I have to go
manually through the
list to search for the extra things that got added to the install list.
This is even more important when removing a package.
And there is ofcourse, the changelog.
Overal I think this rpmdrake could turnout to be quite nice. But it really needs at
least some
more advanced features. The art is to do it without complicating the interface ;)
bye
Danny
