Package: gnome-apt
Version: 0.4.4-2
Severity: minor
Again fire up 'gnome-apt'. Under 'outdated' I see a new version of
'file' and click on it. Pop goes the window:
1 Unsatisfied Dependencies (title)
2 Package | Version needed | Version to be installed (header)
3 libmagic1 = 4.03-3 4.03-2 (text list)
4
5 * needed by file
6
7 Installing the selected package would introduce unsatisfied
dependencies.
8 Should I try adding and/or removing packages to resolve the problems?
9
10 [Ignore] [No] [Yes]
Consider lines #1, #2, #5, and #7. The only place where the offending
package ('file') is identified by name is #5. Vital information shouldn't
be buried.
Suggest changing #1 (the title) to something like:
1 The new 'file' package version 4.03-3 has unsatisfied dependencies
1 'file' v4.03-3 has unsatisfied dependencies
1 Package: 'file', new version 4.03-3 has unsatisfied dependencies
(Giving the version number may help the user understand that there's
nothing wrong with the installed version, and the trouble is with
a particular version of a package, not the package in general.)
Also suggest deleting line #5, after changing #1.
Line #7 is redundant. Changing "the selected package" to "file" (or whatever
the package was) would make it shorter and easier to read:
7 Installing 'file' v4.03-3 would introduce unsatisfied dependencies.
...but that repeats what line #1 should say. Suggest deleting #7,
after changing #1.
BTW, if, for some odd programming reason, changing line #1 is difficult,
then suggest adding a line between #1 and #2, like so:
1 Unsatisfied Dependencies (title)
1.5 'file' v4.03-3 (boldface, maybe bigger font.)
Then deleting lines #5 and #7, for the reasons given.
Hope this helps...
