For example, a select all and deselect all buttons or commands would be useful on all levels of the package selection. Want all the optional packages in a group? Select All. Only want one thing in a group? Deselect all and select the one you want. This does raise the question of does select all only select all the groups and their defaults. Or does it select all groups and every package underneath. I guess it depends on if you think of selection working on the current level or recursively. - Ian -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
