Description Forgotten User 4vqsaUN_8J 2015-08-15 09:01:40 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0
Build Identifier: 

When downloading RPMs from the internet, the option is given to open them with GNOME Software (presumably to install them). However, when doing so, Software opens with an error: "GetDetailsLocal not supported by backend".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download an RPM for openSUSE.
2. Open it using GNOME Software.
Actual Results:  
Gave error "GetDetailsLocal not supported by backend"

Expected Results:  
Given details about the package.

This happened on my old laptop and my new computer (HP G56 with AMD V140 and custom-built with AMD A10-7700K respectively).

Comment 2 Dominique Leuenberger 2015-09-04 06:46:04 UTC

GNOME Software for now no longer ships the local RPM handler. we still have gnome-packagekit for this purpose available.

Comment 4 Stefan Brüns 2016-05-26 03:19:45 UTC

gpk-install-local-file has been removed from gpk:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-packagekit/commit/src?id=83c6f8590a80333ccda56d727adb2bb13598b748

Unfortunately the dysfunctional .desktop file is still shipped.

Comment 5 Dominique Leuenberger 2017-02-18 17:40:15 UTC

This waits for implementations of the needed features on the PackageKit/zypp backend

Comment 6 Jonathan Kang 2018-03-08 03:20:39 UTC

GetDetailsLocal method has been implemented in zypp backend of PackageKit. But
this is still not working, due to the the following error:

> GetFilesLocal not supported by backend.

So GetFilesLocal method should be implemented as well in zypp backend as well.
