Obey Arthur Liu: State of the Aptitude (week 12)
Hi folks!
We’re almost done for the official Summer of Code program and I thought that I couldn’t let it end without another update, so here we are (you may thank Daniel Burrows for additional poking).
The Gtk+ interface for Aptitude is making great progress. The product is not final yet but already implements many of the planned ideas, with others to come.
Here are the screenies:
So, let’s see the tasks presented in my previous update:
- A real user interface <- much progress here
- Being reliable <- check! we don’t crash all the time anymore
- Packages dependencies, pre-dependencies, etc. <- check!
- Hyperlinks between packages <- check!
- Advanced package search <- check!
- Tags support (tag clouds ?) <- well, no clouds yet, but we have tags
- Linking with interesting data sources like popcon <- not done yet
- A lot of interesting things <- well..
