Description macias - 2011-03-03 11:28:26 UTC
User-Agent:       Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.1; U; en) Presto/2.7.62 Version/11.01

Gnome Live CD, 32-bit, Gnome Yast.

In previous versions of Yast, I could run Software Management, click on size column to sort packages by their size, and then uninstall the biggest ones from those which I didn't use.

Now I cannot do this, I would have to scroll packages, and check one by one its size. It is big regression in package management.

Please, bring columns back, or add the ability to add extra columns.

Reproducible: Always

Correction: I found the described feature is already present, however to add columns you have to click RMB on the content, instead of columns header.

Good point. The thing is I didn't see a trivial way to tell when a column header is right-clicked in gtk though. But I will investigate. We can always workaround by having those entries showup over the menubar or some such.

So, gtk3 still doesn't seem to allow such a functionality. My menu entries suggestion would probably be acceptable I guess, but it's quite troublesome. I think I will have to drop this feature request for the moment, given I'm submerged in projects to my neck.
