This is a problem since there may be various enhancements which are part of an EXISTING interface. Consider media codecs like ogg support, or filesystems. Or for example I ported WebDav so I have access to my mac.com idisk from my tablet. I could write a trivial user/password popup, but that is the tail wagging the dog.
There needs to be at least one category visible (sans red-pill) in the application manager for system enhancements which do not have something DIRECTLY visible to the user. > user/ category should be used only by packages that provide user > something visible; has an UI, can be started from the applications > menu etc. Anything else should come as dependencies of such packages > or be installed with apt-get from command line. > > Maybe there could be additional developer/power-user category which > visibility can be toggled from AM options (without resorting to the > red-pill hack), but such packages shouldn't be visible by the default, > they just confuse normal users. > > > - Eero > _______________________________________________ > maemo-developers mailing list > maemo-developers@maemo.org > https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers > _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
