Dear Friends,
we released synaptic 0.35 today. Lot's of changes:
0.35:
- Synaptic uses a tree view now. Users may select from
"Section tree", "Alphabetic tree", "Status tree", or
"Raw list" views.
- "What will change" dialog, informing how the current selection
will change, if the user try to do some action in a package
that would require further changes in the current selection.
- Now it's possible to include APT-enabled CDROMs in the database
using synaptic (apt-cdrom like).
- Undo/Redo implemented, allowing one to rollback changes in the
selection.
- Filter and button for debconf packages (debian only).
- Improved progress dialog for rpm installation.
- If --with-zvt was used, terminal vizualization during package
manager action is now runtime configurable.
- Many minor improvements in the user interface, including great
new icons.
- applied a patch from Mike Snitzer to make it possible to search for
versions.
- Bugfixes.
As there is quite a lot of new code in it, please report any bugs and
problems. One problem we are aware of is that the "flat list" display
mode is rather slow for >2000 packages. We are not sure if there is a
lot we can do against it, as the GtkTreeView seems to be a bit
slow. People interessted in helping with this may have a look at the
"fastlistview" branch and/or conntact me directly.
You can get it at the usual place at

bye,
Michael
