Hi,
I've send this before, but it seems like it didn't reach the list.
I apologize if I'm flooding your inbox and you got this patch series twice.
The pacman codebase is completely new to me, so please forgive me the
obvious mistakes that I overlooked and feel free to point them out and yell at me.
This implements most features from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Allan/Pacman_OptDepends
It probably isn't quite ready to be merged yet, but I want to gather some
feedback on the stuff I've already done.
What is there:
- No regressions afaics
- Only show uninstalled optdepends during install/upgrade
- In package info, show [installed] after installed optdepends
- In package info (local or -ii) show packages which optionally depend on the queried package
- '-Qt' doesn't consider optdepends to be orphans, unless '--nooptdeps/-n' is given
What is missing:
- Show which of the packages listed by '-Qtn' is an optdepend and what optdeps on it
- In package info display the description alongside the "reverse optdeps"
- Recursive removal of unneeded optdeps
- Anything listed under "Other Ideas"
- Tests (mainly needed for the package removal stuff I think)
- Docs with less sucky english ;-)
