i was thinking about the use of a database, re-builded every time the cache update or upgrade, this because parse the contents of a directory(/usr/share/app-install/desktop) is very slow, so we can build the database parsing the directory only the first time, then parse the database to get the packages faster. we can also add an option in the edit menu, to re-build the database, called "Force packages list upgrade" or something similar.
let me know what you think. Stephen Smally _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
