Tim has just committed the last parts to the yum backend in PackageKit:
Now, we have to focus on:
- The APT backend
- Adding unit tests (use “make gcov” to get a nice report)
- Finding performance hot-spots (use “make gprof” to help)
- Finding memory leaks in client and server programs (use valgrind)
- Adding more sane commenting and gtk-doc markup to functions
- A new release
But before that, I need to put the update detail into the pk-update-viewer application. At the moment I've got this:
I have to put the following into the bottom 'pane' somehow:
- package_id (contains what repo it's coming from and the name arch and version)
- updates (what packages are updated by this package)
- obsoletes (what is updated by this package)
- url (a link to a security advisory etc.)
- restart (if we need to restart or logout/login)
- update_text (all the description about why the update was done)
The button should be the url link, but I'm stuck otherwise. Ideas welcome, as I'm not GUI design legend.
