Priorities:
HB - high bug
NB - normal bug
LB - low bug
HW - high wish
NW - normal wish
LW - low wish
UN - unclassified/ verify

[Open for 2.7]
[HB] long description not shown -> depends on libept, might go away with new version of libept

---
[LB] When no config file is available (i.e. packagesearch is startet for the first time), hiding a column always results in
hiding the description column and no other column can be hidden (really happens only when without config).
[LB] Busy cursor is not reset, if similar seach is performed for a package which does not exist
[LB] Column order is not saved in settings
[LLB] Crashes when pressing "clear all" after searching for System::accounting (happens only in Debug mode, seems to be caused by involvation of modeltest)


[HHW] Make project files include shared stuff
[HW] Support predefined debtags profiles: Graphical Application, Widget, Command Line Application, Development Library, I18n, Data
[HW] Support "ignore recommends" option for deborphan
[HW] Check if Xapian Index is up to date
[HW] install/remove multiple files
[NW] SearchPlugin should not derive from QObject (not use signals)
[NW] add separator in package list context menu after package options
[NW] allow copy all content/packages to clipboard for package list
[NW] add Essential and Priority to package details as soon as they are
  available via apt-front 
[NW] GUI Testing for QT would be interesting
[NW] Obsolete status?
[LW] Install deb files like "gdebi", i.e. register for file extension/allow "packagesearch xxx.deb" to install foreign packages
[LW] Add search-as-you-type and "search term suggestion" (see notes file)
[LW] look into sticky search
[LW] add maintainer, section, depends, .... search
[LW] let apt-file block the file plugin only
[LLW] implement "apt-get update" and "debtags update" using libept 
[LLW] allow showing of NEWS.Debian.[gz] files of installed packages


Ideas
--------------------------------
Developer profile (facet preselection, visible windows/panes)

Not reproducable:
--------------------------------
[NB, not reproducable any more] "Hide column" hides wrong columns (select "Hide Column" for "Installed Version" and "Description" will be gone


Deferred/ difficult, unimportant
--------------------------------
- save the view state of the toolbar
	-> it seems QT ignores the loading of it :-( 
- allow pressing of delete in the views of the tags
	-> assigned minor priority and quite onerous (subclassing QListView and so on)
- check backwards compability from debtags plugin loading
	-> not needed, settings not important enough
- create nice tab order
	-> this is no easy task with very little benefit
- update column display after loading plugins
	-> this only bloats the code, plugins are usually not often enabled/disabled

	
Dismissed
--------------------------------
- add changelog and readme
	-> available by the filename plugin using view
-linebreak only on lines with a single dot.
	-> this is not possible as not every linebreak is symbolized by a single .
-reduce the sections to show in the tags search depended of the other filters
	-> improve this to work together with the apt and related filters
		For this we need a really good data structure - give it some thought!
	-> this breaks the plugin structure and will not be incorporated
