package names truncated at "-" in installation (qt ui)
Last modified: 2006-03-20 16:30:51 UTC
in the "Package Installation" screen you can see: Downloading java-1_4_2-sun-plugin (xxxx) java-1_4_2-sun (xxx) Downloading kdebase3-ksysguardd (xxxx) kdebase3 (xxxx) looks like all names are truncated at the _last_ "-" char ... and if there is no "-" in the name it looks like: Downloading kdelibs3 (xxxx) kdelibs3.rpm (xxxx) (without "-", ".rpm" is appended ...)
Still happening.
Looks like the API silently got changed while migrating from the old package manager to libzypp: The callbacks while installing packages used to pass package names with release no. etc., now it doesn't any more. That release no. was indeed cut off. Removing that StripReleaseNo() call. I wonder when (not if) it will break the other way around when the API silently changes back...
