Re: [Trisquel-users] "Add/Remove Applications" alternative for Trisquel 9?

[strypey]

What about having a web-based app store, like Mint does, or the Firefox  
addons site? Could you set up app info pages so that clicking "install"  
starts the default package manager and asks it to install the package(s) for  
that app (subject to user entering the correct admin password of course)?  
Then the "add/ remove applications" menu item could launch the default web  
browser into a searchable index of those app pages.

A web-based app store could also provide anonymous stats on how many times  
different apps get installed, prominent links for how users can contribute to  
app dev (with time, money, or otherwise), and so on.
