Control: found -1 0.6.4-1.2 Control: severity -1 wishlist
Hi Michael, 2011-11-24 10:32 Michael Stummvoll:
Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.4-1.2 Severity: wishlist Hi, It would be a nice feature to allow the cli install action flags (_, -, +) on aptitude. May this could be made in the search-feature: if a action-char is append, aptitude does not jump to the next match but applies this action to all matches.
There is already a way to achieve this with limiting the view and patterns. You can limit the view with 'l' and a search pattern, and then in the root of the subtree that matches, you can apply the action key to perform the action on all packages from that subtree. It needs a few extra keystrokes and may not be as quick for some usecases, if you don't want to browse the packages at all. But in that case, maybe one can use the equivalent in the command line anyway. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
