Fairly close, yes. I think there was also an idea to perhaps make metadata an explicit filetype so that if a user searches for "nvidia linux driver" and lands on the nivida website, they can click a link and PK (or similar) will know what to do. That would also go for other 3rd party repositories. There is the bit about "informed decision", so some messaging before it's installed might be necessary. josh -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
