I'm not sure why you offered up the above in response to me - maybe you weren't responding to me, but that's not obvious. I'm suggesting, to put it another way, that those who LIKE KYUM, add their own comments to the bug report I filed many months ago, in the hope that the developer, seeing interest in his program, might make the time to fix it. I make that suggestion because I DO LIKE KYUM - it's just unusable in its current state, unless you resort to time-consuming work-arounds. Yumex has gotten much better, but, my metric is the Synaptic UI for apt - that was a very convenient window that gave you in one location, a lot of information about installed and available packages - it required the least of amount of clicking around to get info of any of the package managers I've tried. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA
