This puts this discussion in the hands of UI and design specialists, as opposed to developers. Which may mean that Fedora is the wrong place to do most of this work. Because this suggests that this tool will be useless to me. I tried to use packagekit when I first installed it. I was taking some notes to file bugs, but these will likely not be of interest as they are aimed more at users like myself. There is no reason why an abstracted GUI should be less easy to use than yum. -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com ) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
