I guess that was autoremove of unused deps. Will fix that also.

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

Well, unused deps should be removed but it should not remove packages that are installed by default by Jolla, or installed by the user directly. I think the term is "explicitly installed" and there should be a flag for that.

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

I cannot control that directly, since packagekit is resolving deps. He desides what can be removed, and what cannot be.

I will just disable unused deps removing for now, until that stuff clarified.

Ahh, I see. Yeah that is a Jolla bug if that's the case. They must fix that in their flasher/installer. But then it's best to not do it otherwise it could remove vital stuff too and make the phone not bootable. :p

It seems that rpm doesn't got a flag for this.

Message "Package xxxx is not user package" ande then no install etc!? What's wrong here?:confused:

EDIT: Ok apt-get install in terminal if repository installed!:)

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

As I expect, vital stuff wont be removed. Manually installed deps (which are not automatically pulled in, but pkcon install/etc) should also be inplace. From my point I can forbid rpm to remove anything except target package.

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

Yes that's right. I tested a bit more now and first uninstalled panucci which removed perl, among other things, and then I manually installed perl with pkcon and then I installed/removed panucci and perl stayed on so it seems that it works as it should, only unused deps are removed by Warehouse.

Edit: I'm guessing it's libzypp that keeps track of this as rpm can't.

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

Just wondering, how would it fit the current UI scheme that if there are unrequired packages, Warehouse would ask on the spot whether to uninstall only the target package or everything?

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

If package have deps which are available, they will be installed automatically. There is no popup with notification, that extra downloads required. This will be added in future releases.

If deps are not available, error message will be shown with packages which are required, but not available.

Re: [Announce][WIP] Warehouse - native client for OpenRepos.net
 

Is there something seriously wrong with zypper/pkcon?

Maybe it's only me (I'm used to Archlinux's pacman), but I expect this behavior:
When installing a package, it should install all the dependencies, if available.
When removing a package, it should check whether the dependencies originally installed are now owned (required) by any other package. If not, it should remove them, or at least notify the user which dependencies are no longer needed by any installed package so the user can remove them.
