PackageKit will use such data to allow you to suggest programs when you click a file (and no installed program handles the type). I would also suggest adding a similar patch to fetch supported hardware ids from kernel modeinfo and store them in Provides (so you can plug a new type of hardware and let PackageKit find an appropriate package). -- Patryk Zawadzki PLD Linux Distribution _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
