Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kpackagekit
The package names should be short, or at least should have an option.
The user doesn't need to know that they are trying to download "firefox
- 3.0.12 + build1 + nobinonly + 0ubuntu2 (all)" This is confusing and
messy.
Selecting a file to download needs work, the download arrow is light
blue and the highlighted line is a slightly darker shade. On top of
this, the light blue doesn't stand out very well from the grey. Maybe it
should be a different colour, such as green.
The downloading dialog is a mess. It shouldn't resize continuously, it
should probably grow to fit the largest item but not shrink back
afterwards. When downloading a lot of files the dialog jumps all over
the place, making it impossible to click on hide or cancel without
either clicking nothing or the wrong button all together.
KPackageKit should not automatically exit when it has finished
downloading and installing. If the user leaves the computer to go and do
something else (make a coffee) and then returns to see that KPackageKit
has vanished, the user might assume that the application just crashed
without displaying an error. Also whilst downloading they might remember
that they wanted to download something else and this means that they
have to load it up all over again.
The update manager should display files in alphabetical order.
