Bundles size not consistently displayed/available #493

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is painful to not being always able to see the install size of a bundle, because it requires knowing exactly on of its file name (we could for example only know bundle name, but only launch one of its application by a graphical icon, with a different icon "name" -- case, etc..) Ie:

$ wireshark wireshark: command not found To install wireshark use: sudo swupd bundle-add wireshark $ sudo swupd search wireshark Bundle with the best search result: wireshark - Network packet capture and analysis This bundle can be installed with: swupd bundle-add wireshark Alternative bundle options are network-security-monitoring - Various tools to test and improve network security $ sudo swupd search /wireshark Bundle with the best search result: wireshark - Network packet capture and analysis (103Mb) This bundle can be installed with: swupd bundle-add wireshark Alternative bundle options are desktop-assets - Images and Icons for the desktop (450Mb) os-core-update - Provides basic suite for running the Clear Linux for iA Updater (25Mb) => we had to search wireshark bundle by file to learn its install size

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to see the potential install size of any bundle regardless of if we search it by "title" or by "file" Eg:

$ wireshark wireshark: command not found To install wireshark use: sudo swupd bundle-add wireshark $ sudo swupd search wireshark Bundle with the best search result: wireshark - Network packet capture and analysis (103Mb) ...

Describe alternatives you've considered An alternative could be to always search by "file", but it seems strange, and also I believe that "file" search always require sudo priviledges ?

Additional context N/A

@fenrus75 we'd need to have bundle sizes for swupd-search. Is this doable? then we should just add it.

Is it intended for the swupd-client team own swupd-search? I'd prefer to move these kind of issues into under swupd-client for tracking.

the bundle size thing got fixed this morning, at least for bundles where the size can be known

Shouldn't this be moved under swupd component? (which has few similar items)

bryteise commented 5 years ago

@eero-t I agree, moving.
