I hadn't realized that was part of the use cases -- I was thinking more about installation than removal. > If we want to still get it from a design point of view, we can add a > "2 items that are installed here, but not on David's Netbook" with a > Remove all button. Does that include only packages that were part of the default installation on the other computer? Or does it include all packages that were removed from the other computer, regardless of whether they were part of the default installation? The main challenge would be making any extra branch look like it belonged, in a screen supposedly devoted to things that *are* installed. > - I'm not clear about what "other items" should contain to be honest :) Items that are installed both on that computer and this one.

Will it be insane to tell something like "you can add <…> > software source to be able to sync that software" Sorry, I haven't had time to figure out how to present that understandably. (David Siegel has just pointed out to me that even in the single-computer case, we don't present "Use This Source" well for items in the partner repository.) > - What "Install All" is doing?

I was thinking that it would depend on whether you'd clicked the "1417 other technical items" link. But if so, maybe that link should be a toggle (click it again to hide the technical items), rather than something that disappears when you click it. What do you think? > We can maybe change the label to "install all including technical > items" (or a better label, of course), when the user click on 1417 > other technical items to show that the install all changed? >... Maybe the button label could just change to include the number: "Install All 3" <-> "Install All 19". - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkw7ILIACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecpeUwCgkXXkYC6vly6sRx4Eb7aDLabn 79wAoKPi6dYSGBFbGXbe3xCnm8gM8En0 =TCAw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
