Is it possible to add an additional sort order for packages in the smart
package manager?
The one I am thinking of is the one which exists in the SUSE's YOU
software manager which has a group called SELECTION which groups
packages according to such headings as-
Graphical Base System
KDE Desktop Environment
All of KDE
GNOME System
Games
Multimedia
Kernel Development
Network and Server
and so on.
These groupings not only greatly help in locating packages whose exact
names are not known but their general purpose is known as well as
installing all packages which are required for a specific purpose (eg,
multimedia).
Cheers.
