From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: During selection of available packages there is a button to show (security) advisories (View advisory). If there is no advisory available for the package the button returns a popup window with "No advisory information available.". I think it is more natural to make the button inactive whenever there is no advisory available. This should be quite easy to implement and saves the user a lot of time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): up2date-4.1.16-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start up2date 2. 3. Additional info:
Does up2date even support displaying advisories when updating from yum or apt? I would hope so, as otherwise how would I know what I'm being asked to install... E.g. when a kernel update appears is it due to a local or remote security problem? - if is local I might not bother, but if its a remote vunerability then I definitely want to install it. Without the advisory information its hard to make that choice.
up2date does not support showing advisories when updating from yum or apt since yum/apt repos dont include any information about advisories.
