hi all, I was wondering that, the sysinstall(8) utility doesn't have package managment facilities designed for people to view even if they don't have some kind of connection to the media. Example: When you select the 'packages' option, it will ask you about your media type. If someone doesn't have any of the media, than, they wouldn't be able to know what packages are installed on their system. (Only by doing pkg_info, but not from sysinstall.. :) What I am suggesting is, that we can make a section in the sysinstall configure menu, where we can show all the currently installed packages, and we can link up the current pkg routines such as adding, removing, so that people can easily see what packages are installed, and they can also remove them from that menu.. let me know about your views on this.. thanks, regards, - Hiten - <hiten@uk.FreeBSD.org> ===== SSH Fingerprint: 1024 45:a5:9c:f2:fb:07:da:70:18:02:0b:f3:63:f1:7a:a6 hitenp@hpdi.ath.cx __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
