Re: [PATCH] PUI, show information about installed package version

Precisely! Jake wants to see the author-version of the already installed package. And the only way to do that is to store it some place where it won't be overwritten by the package-index file. NK> Thus, storing the author-version wouldn't help, would it? Yes. The information displayed by `pui-display-info' is confusing. It should probably spit out something like... Installed upstream ver: y.yy.y Available Upstream ver: z.zz.z ...to the minibuffer, and a whole heap of other stuff to the balloon-help frame. Then it would be a good idea to map 'm' to a function that displays the package's maintainer. -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: A94B3003>---| | Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. | | The proof of the pudding, is under the crust. | |------------------------------&lt;sryoungs(a)bigpond.net.au&gt;---|
