If we make this change in the gui, the cli should be changed too, or alternatively, we should consider changing the API. I don't like the idea of our clients having divergent behaviour in this area. Maybe we could add an image property to control this and have the api respect that unless refresh=False? -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
