it would be nice to be able to filter on packages that do not belong to any
external channels (ie.. not the RPM db or DEB db). Thus I can figure out what
packages are orphaned from a system upgrade and deprecated or need to be
re-packages. This is one feature I used from synaptic and it would be nice to
have similar functionality in Smart.
To post a comment you must log in.
Is this equivalent to a view filter saying : If <name> exists in local db and not in remote channels then select (e.g. for removal/display)?
This function is used in the fedora <major version> upgrade process (e.g. fedora 7 -> fedora 8). It is something like 'remove orphans'
