proposal for apt-get
First of all...
Thank you very much for mantain a realy, realy without compare applitacion to manage the package in our systems....
Hi,
I have a proposal thinking in the future...
Due to the number of package nowadays in debian (sid), I should
recomend the OPTIONAL use of a database engine (SQL) to manage the
metainformation of the packages.
The search and updates could be mouch more efective and customized.
This option must be optional because the requirement of a db engine couldn't be the basic requirement...
I think if apt-get have a tier to access the matainformation this could be customized in many ways...
an example all the files package.list could be storage in a table...
a relational table of packages dependences, packages intalled not
installed previous versions installed etc... a historial of when was
installed a package.... statistics...notes...
the information could be really impresive...
if not every system need all this power a lot of users could enjoy and love it...
