Pop!_OS package overview and search #19

Open PanderMusubi opened 4 years ago

Please offer a Pop!_OS package overview search similar to https://packages.ubuntu.com/ or https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages

Howdy @PanderMusubi :wave: Thanks for the great suggestion! This is something we'd like to make available and it's already on our roadmap :tada: I don't have a timeline just yet but we've begun the internal conversations on how best to move forward.

Thanks for the feedback and have a great week :tada:

Is there any update on this?

I agree that this is a great idea. Many times I consider distrohopping to Pop!_OS, but I first want to check if it has the packages I want as well as the versions I want.

But in the current state, it's a bit tedious that I would need to first boot into an ISO, run sudo apt update, then search with apt to find what I'm looking for.

I would also like this available. I develop some semi-complex scripts for Debian based distros, and often need to know which packages are available out of the box on each distro and distro version. I.e. versioned versions of gcc and llvm, and few more.

It will also help https://distrowatch.com/

An additional requirement is to perhaps also show searsch results from flathub, or at least link to searching in flathub.

Hope to see this available with the next LTS release in 2024.

With the release of COSMIC on the horizon, can this issue get picked up?

Still no timeline, sorry.
