Not sure who all the upstream(s) involved might be, but from my personal PoV at least you can add all the options you like… the topic gets harder if we talk defaults & changing (e.g.) the lists completely (like that tabular verbose-explosion thingy from apk or whatever it was). At some point it might make sense to extended apt-patterns so that current (and future) lists can be expressed in them and then add some more options to format those lists/tables/… at which point we could have different templates and so options/choices galore. I think aptitude has formatting to some extend of its lists. One of my first apt patches that was never merged was actually about reordering/coloring the lists… that failed, so I am very positive that a much bigger yak will be shaved more easily and faster many years later. ;)
Precedence of the initial ask is 'can be autoremoved' btw, which is not displayed, displays a full list, an even fuller list in version mode or displays a single line with how many packages could be autoremoved depending on config. P.S.: On a multi-arch system nearly every Depends is a choice even without or-groups: given that you e.g. pick banana:amd64 or banana:i386 for an M-A:foreign banana. And the t64 transition added a quadrillion of real vs. virtual bananas at least until everyone depends on bananat64. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1988819 Title: When apt keeps back packages due to phased updates, it should list them separately To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1988819/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
