- AppData and AppStream can be disabled independently of finding
their requirements (possibly useful if you want to ignore
AppStream even when it's installed in your build environment).
- Add a little top-level documentation about WITH_
- Use *appstream* as key in one of the items for the package-
chooser to load data from the AppStream cache in the system.
- Usable for some applications; for DE-selection not so much.
- Currently unimplemented.
- Put the implementation entirely in a separate file, keep the
not-supported one in PackageModel.cpp (but only in an #ifdef).
- Makes the various optional-data-sources more similar.
- Doing a manual read of the XML, since existing appdata libraries
don't seem to have a convenient entry for what I need.
- Expand tests to loading AppData (currently, they fail).
Package chooser is a **low density** package selector -- unlike
netinstall which offers a high density tree view -- for picking
zero, one, or more items from a small collection of packages.
This can be used, e.g., for "pick exactly one desktop environment",
"pick zero or more text editors" which can then be installed
by another module. The UI is big and shiny (rather than netinstall's
text-based tree view) and isn't suitable for more than a dozen or
so items.
