An easy way to see uncategorized packages

diversys opened this issue · comments

Currently many packages lack category info and it's a chor to manually go through a huge list to see id there is a category or not. Selecting category could also be made easier, i.e. without opening a sepatate page. Popup window maybe?
Finding packages without screenshots is also difficult.

Hello; To facilitate this, there are reports in the system;

  1. Log into the HDS system
  2. Go to the "Hamburger Menu" (top right)
  3. Choose "Reports"

Here you will find the possibility of producing reports covering categories, screenshot-coverage, icon-coverage etc... If this covers your needs, could you close this ticket.

This is all I see after opening "Package category coverage report".

Same with other links.

Click on "Refresh" until you see a download link. Sorry not the best UI, but it works.

That worked, however this is not really what I'd like. I wanted a table of packages which would show which uncategorised ones, where you can simply click a package and set a category (or add screenshot, icon).

OK, maybe one for the future.

In the meantime, you are also able to edit those spreadsheets and give them to somebody with root access and they can re-load them into the system to perform a bulk update of categories.

It is also possible to download a "tar ball" of icons or screenshots. You can then edit that tar-ball and provide it to somebody with root access and they can bulk-load icons and spreadsheets as well.

This may help you in the meantime.
