Do you run kuroo as root? Did you switch off sounds for root, too?

hey guys nice work!

I've tested Kuroo and it's great but I still got suggetstion that might boost usability.

I installed tried an aplications and uninstalled if i didn't like it. I did that alot last few days. So for every uninstall I had to search for the package again.

Verry simpler it would be to add a right click menu (popup with an uninstall option) at the History page for installed packages.

What do you think?

This sounds like a reasonable suggestion. We may consider it in a future release :)

Thanks for your feedback!

virtual/jdk problem

Looks like kuroo cannot handle virtual package properly in package.keywords.

Everytime I use kuroo to edit the keywords file, it would drop the virtual/jdk entry which is necessary for java 1.5 setup (I have both 1.4 and 1.5 installed.) and portage would no longer work until I add the entry back (manually or through kuroo.)

hi,

Does kuroo support managing the package.keywords as directory structure?

That's what I use, so I wanted to ask before I dabble with it.

I must say that Kuroo shines. I've hardly ever used the portage command line since I emerged Kuroo!
I just wanted to make a little suggestion to improve the filtering mechanism. I was thinking that it shouldn't be too hard to introduce the possibility to invert the filtering, perhaps using a toggle button or something.
Scenario: I want to know what else is to be updated except the 65 KDE related "revision" updates I decided to ignore.

Thanks for the software!

Unfortunately Kuroo is not actively developed for the moment due to lack of spare time...

Hi,

Does kuroo emerge in a screen?

If not, then that would make a great feature, because then emerging wouldn't stop when you close kuroo, and even an X-Server crash wouldn't drag it down.

Besides: Thanks a lot! I like kuroo very much!

augh...

Is there some way to help development?

Since it's time you're lacking, I assume a donation wouldn't help that much...

Kuroo is the best portage management tool out there (I know of). It's slick, efficient and extremely useable, and I would love to see it flourish even more!

I think it could be one of the major steps to make Gentoo more useable to general users (and to make it possible to create powerful end-user distributions using Gentoo).

Don't worry!

Its development has just been started again. New hot features will come in a future (parallel emerge, new dependency calculation, maybe faster than even the emerge itself...)

Be patient please :)
