What's next...?

[Firstp1ck]

I will post progress here, if you have questions, you can ask them here.

I will also take suggestions here for the current progress.

[Firstp1ck]

Here my current feature I am working on:

Preflight Modal: Installation

• Dependency Tab

Here you can check if Dependencies needs updates or if there are conflicts of dependencies

• Help/Info Panel for Deps Tab

[Firstp1ck]

• Summery Tab for showing potential issues/upgrades of dependencies

• Dependency Tab showing Dependencies grouped by packages.

[Firstp1ck]

• Added Files Tab implementation that show changed/added files of official packages (AUR not possible without building them).

[Firstp1ck]

Preflight: Sandbox and Language implementation

@summoner001 check out the branch #feat/preflight-services-summery branch. I added more sentence that are translated.

[Firstp1ck]

Conflict detection: Checks "Install List" and already installed packages

[Firstp1ck]

Small Feature added before big refactor 😄

• Added syntax highlighting for PKGBUILD viewer.
• Added Gruvbox Dark theme configuration. (backup your old theme.conf, it will generate a new theme.conf with the new theme)

[Firstp1ck]

Update Indicator-button, if updates available, shows Number of updates: "Updates available (X)"

Simple Popup when button clicked:

Format:
| pacsea-bin - v0.5.0 -> pacsea-bin - v0.5.1 |

[Firstp1ck]

Usage of pacsea -u or pacsea --update fix and added colored output/Summary #62 :

[Firstp1ck]

@Max-Guenther is implementing a quick way to update single packages via the "updates Available" window and adds colored repo info for the packages to update.

Thank you for your contribution!

[Firstp1ck]

Preflight for removal improvements:

• Fixed a bug that prevented removal with preflight.
• Additionally, you can now set installed_packages_mode to all or leaf:
  • all: Show all explicitly installed packages (including those other packages depend on)
  • leaf: Show only leaf packages (explicitly installed, nothing depends on them)
  • Reload via key bind to change live.
• Also, services should now be shown if there is a service that would be removed.

[Firstp1ck]

AUR packages marked as OOD: Out of date and ORPHAN: @summoner001

[Firstp1ck]

Working on Comment view:

• URL support (opens in browser) like Userpage, specific Comment, and general URL's
• Toggle via keybind or Button on bottom of "Package Info" pane.

[Firstp1ck]

@CooperTrooper21 Thank you for the suggestion to try a integrated process again, I had more luck this time implementing this feature as in my other projects xD

First look into an integrated install process, instead of opening an extra terminal.

Enter password:

Track install process:

Loading Post-Install Summary:

Post-Install summary:

[Firstp1ck]

Current state:
Possible implementations:

• Installation, update single and System update
• Removal
• TUI Optional deps installs

Not Possible to implement:

• Downgrade -> uses it's own TUI
• Scan with aur-sleuth -> uses it's own TUI

Not clear yet:

• Setup of TUI optional deps

If you are locked out due to input sudo password wrongly, you will see a new "Locked" message at the top right:

I am currently working on better loading performance for package content and
an announcement system to create a popup when a new version is coming out.

Also another announcement system to announce importent news and dev announcements like polls and disscusion news.

Version Announcement:

System/Dev Announcments (can be deactivated):

New string idea:
I think better if change the word "recent" (searches) to search history. it is a bit confuse what is recent.

[Firstp1ck]

I understand your concern. I would like to keep it short, and I think this could be a good change.

I will think about it and give you my decision tomorrow.

Suggestion:

• Change from "Recent" to "Search History"

[Firstp1ck]

With the change we would need to harmonize the Keybind panel at the bottom. I want to keep the "Title" there as small as possible, so "Search History" for the bottom would be I think a bit too long.

Do you have an idea?

[summoner001]

Gnome terminal kgx use: Scrollback (visszagörgetés), it is a history of recent commands, and you can set the scrollback value 0 to 10000+) and the up down arrows you can scrolling back the recent used commands.
Or simple use: History

We have a rule when translating applications: Don't work for the renderer, and translate as if the application were originally in Hungarian. Correct the renderer if necessary.

I think rework this panel/box is a best thing, and we can use serch history. :(

[Firstp1ck]

I am working on an extended newsfeed next.

Here are some of the ideas I have @PickleHik3:

• Installed-package news + AUR comments: Aggregate version bumps for installed official/AUR packages and surface latest AUR comments with last-seen tracking; unread/read state; keyboard-first filters.
• Security advisories with scope toggle: Fetch security.archlinux.org JSON; show severity, affected packages, fixed versions; filters for installed vs all; per-advisory read/unread; link-out to details.
• Arch packaging issues: Poll GitLab API for open issues in archlinux/packaging/packages; filter by installed package names in title/labels/description; cache ETag/Last-Modified and last-seen issue IDs; emit feed cards with labels/severity and links; opt-in “all issues” mode; rate-limit to avoid API abuse.
• AUR metadata bulk diff: Periodically fetch AUR .json.gz with ETag/If-Modified-Since; parse incrementally, prioritizing installed package names; optional full diff mode for all packages; emit update events while minimizing RPC calls. -> Quicker “what changed in my AUR packages” checks with fewer waits, less API throttling, and an optional full snapshot for deeper exploration when desired.

I am open to Feedback! 😄

[Firstp1ck]

First look into the News Feed TUI. @PickleHik3

Easy Switch between "Package Management" and "News Management" windows:

[Firstp1ck]

@PickleHik3
Added new sources:

• AUR Comments
• AUR package update available
• Official package update informations

Preview: Work in Progress

Next will be popups for "critical/importent" comments left on aur packages.

[Firstp1ck]

@PickleHik3 New Notification System:

Setup News at the start of the TUI once

Loading Popup for clarity

News popup as before with extended News Feed: Arch News, Advisory Security, official package updates, AUR Updates, New AUR Comments (Shows the newest comment with possibility to go to the comment Website directly to show more)

Change Settings if needed for the News Popup

[Firstp1ck]

As of now after the release of v0.7.1 and the introduction of the extensive News Feed I am working on a Library that extracts reusable code to the crate "arch-toolset" for others to use via cargo on crates.io. I will implement the crate into Pacsea step by step.

• No new features for now.
• Bugfixes are still being recognized and worked on and given priority!
