If I run a package transaction and later want to undo the transaction with `dnf history`, it can be a time consuming process to iterate over `dnf history info N` to identify the transaction later. It would be helpful if I could arbitrarily label a transaction and have the label show as a column in the history list, for example: dnf install gnumeric calligra-sheets libreoffice-calc --historylabel spreadsheets # test the applications dnf history ID | Label |Login | Date a | Action | Altere --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 246 | spreadsheets | Pete | 2015-02-13 22:55 | I, U | 4 dnf history undo 246 (or) dnf history undo --historylabel=spreadsheets --exclude-libreoffice-calc
Hi, this could be work for some plugin. We need the new history database that would allow to save custom values and expose it's API. I am not convinced that this RFE will not be massively used. At the time of installation you don't usually know that you would like to at the future undo that and for that case tag it. If anyone comes with new use case, feel free to share it.
