Description Volker Kuhlmann 2006-12-09 19:12:08 UTC
Yast->Software management->Installation sources, or Packagae groups etc, has an "Export this list to text file" function when right-clicking on a package. this is a very useful function, but it only exports the available version of each package. The installed version is missing. The "Source" column is missing too. The "Summary column" is better left off, as it is implemented now.

I would find it useful to have the "Inst. Ver." (and "Source") columns exported to the text file as well.

Added installed version and column headers. Will attach sample export file.

Please note that "source" would not be useful: This is the status of the source RPM (install or don't install). But since RPM does not keep track of installed source RPMs, this information is highly volatile: It would be valid only for source RPMs you marked for installation during this program run.

This will be available with yast2-qt-2.13.78 (SLES-10 SP1) and with openSUSE 10.3 (SP1 changes will be merged back to 10.3 code base after the SP1 beta phase).
