 Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2018 3:32 am Post subject: How to suggest new feature? |
 |
|
I think if eselect have 'manual-update' option, which shows lists of candidate and prompt which one to set and then get user input as digit will reduce keyboard strokes.
Usage would be
| Code: |
#eselect kernel manual-update
|
But where can I suggest this idea? Bugzilla or github?
Edit:0
Currently gentoo eselect update automatically sets modules. |

I think what you're looking for is addressed by using the following emerge options:
| man emerge wrote: | --oneshot, -1
Emerge as normal, but do not add the packages to the world file for later updating. |
| man emerge wrote: | --deselect [ y | n ]
Remove atoms and/or sets from the world file. This action is implied by uninstall actions, including --depclean, --prune and --unmerge. Use --deselect=n in order to prevent uninstall actions from removing atoms from the world file. |

Oh, I should have more specific to describe that new feature.
I mean, I don't want to type
| Code: | #eselect kernel list
#eselect kernel set 2
|
rather I want to
| Code: | #eselect kernel manual-update
>>> [1] linux-kernel-4.14.55
>>> [2] linux-kernel-4.14.83
>>> Which one do you want to set? [1/2/N]: 2
>>> Kernel set to '[2] linux-kernel-4.14.83'

Probably is better (imho  ) with an option (-i, --interactive)
| Code: | | # eselect -i kernel list |
with an option is possible to use it for all modules and not only for kernel.
I think you can propose this feature opening a new bug

Yes, for example with subject ''app-admin/eselect: new feature interactive"
