Same as above, but with rpmmon: http://ben.reser.org/mandrake/rpmmon/rpmmon.cgi?package=%s so "rpmmon postfix" gives: http://ben.reser.org/mandrake/rpmmon/rpmmon.cgi?package=postfix > > It could be greet for packages quality, no ? > I don't know if it would be that valuable. Most valuable feature is to know if it is in main or contrib. I would prefer urpmq to be able to give me this info, specifically url, packager, description. urpmq is much faster than any website (IMHO). And it would be nice if I didn't need to be root to 'urpmq --sources'. I think time could be better spent on bugzilla .... or putting these labelled bookmarks into the default bookmars, along with one for bugzilla ("bugzilla bugid"?).
