Context menus
Behan,
I haven't noticed any right click menus in your design, so I thought I'd
ask about them. I think it would be most helpfull to have some form of
context sensitive menu for the tree display. Also, some of the items I
wanted to have in the context menu are not yet (but I think ought to be)
put into the main menus someplace..
Mark for Removal
Mark for Purging
Mark for Hold
* Mark for Installation
----------
Hamm (3.14)
* Bo (2.2)
Default
The latter 3 are part of the 'targeted installs' we were talking about. I
am thinking you can make the package sticky to a dist (highest version in
that dist and only that dist will be offered for install). 'Default' would
be some kind of configurable algorithm..
Now, where should the latter 3 itmes go in the main menus (if at all).
Also, what about purge?
I am uncertain how the 4 states and the install version should all work
together, could you clarify that? (Unfortunately your spec doesn't have
this target version idea yet :<)
FYI, the internal storage of each package has these kinds of fields
TargetVersion
TargetDist
Status (held, ok, etc)
I don't know if TargetVersion has any use?
Unfortunately 'www.verisim.com' is down tonight (I think the cvs server
died off too :<) so I wasn't able to check if the above is already
addressed.
Thanks,
Jason
