I just remembered... https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/
We could use this, right? Just have a desktop file with Exec=xdg-open https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/ And voila... we do need an apt:// handler of course so we need something like gdebi installed. But, this would ensure that the user is online (i.e. can install apps) and we don't have to do anything at all to make one. Though... it wont take care of 'uninstalling' programs. Maybe we can have an intermediary page that has something like: Install new apps Uninstall apps Help Uninstall apps, could be a simple zenity dialog that gets the list of packages installed with checkboxes. the user checks a box, and a confirm dialog pops-up then if the user answers OK it runs sudo apt-get autoremove ${SELECTION[@]} Thoughts? -- Regards -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~torios Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~torios More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
