Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-2+b1
Severity: wishlist

Hello Daniel,

After I reverted to using grouping by default (instead of a flat list, 
which seemed more practical at the time) I got a bit annoyed by the 
grouping by sections (admin, gnome, kde, ...) before archive component 
(main, contrib, non-free). IMHO there are some benefits to grouping by 
component first:

+ it is more logical (grouping from top to bottom)
+ it makes it more obvious that one has contrib/non-free packages
+ it gets rid of an additional sub-grouping in every section, even if 
one has only 'main' configured (which is probably what prompted me to 
try a flat list in the beginning)

- ... can't think of any right know (which doesn't mean they don't 
  exist)

For the record, my current setting is:

aptitude::UI::Default-Grouping 
"status,section(topdir),section(subdirs,passthrough)";

(I don't need the tasks)

Regards,
Andrei
