--- Comment #3 from Lonnie <k...@startport.com> --- How could Discover possibly install any application without knowing the package name? Obviously, it must "discover" the package name before it can assist in installing the package. I'm requesting that the package name be shown to the user before it is installed, so that the user can take note of it. I'd like the ability to copy and paste that package name into my "sudo apt install" list (that I keep up to date for the purposes of quickly installing all my packages in the event I reinstall the OS). The reason I don't use Discover, at the moment, if because that at no time in the installation process does it reveal this fundamentally pertinent piece of information to the user! I've been requesting this for years and I can't understand why I get so much frustrating resistance for this simple and reasonable request! When I began using Linux exclusively, back in April of 2007, the GUI Software Manager in Ubuntu 7.04 always included this information. At some point along the way, however, some nitwit decided to remove package names for the so called "details". In my opinion, if you don't list the package name, those aren't details. Because to me, package name is the most pertinent detail I want to know. Exclude other stuff, but don't exclude the package name. All I care about is the package name and the source of the package. That's it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
