Binary package hint: gnome-app-install
We need an adjustment to gnome-app-install for an Edubuntu spec:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/UbuntuJaunty/EducationAppBundles
From IRC:
< LaserJock> | well, basically I've got some metapackages
< LaserJock> | and we'd like them to "float" to the top of the Education menu
< LaserJock> | I was wondering if perhaps a general mechanism would be better than just special-casing them
< LaserJock> | something like a "X-AppInstall-Float" flag
< mvo> | you wanted some magic to change the ordering?
< LaserJock> | that you would then collect all the floats and put them at the beginning somehow
< mvo> | to make it appear on top all the time
< mvo> | yeah, I think that can be done relatively easily (famous last words ;)
< mvo> | a bug would be most helpful, then I can target it etc
< mvo> | just pasting this irc conversation is good enough for me
< mvo> | X-AppInstall-AlwaysOnTop, Floating, something like this
this should be wish list.
