Hi,

 

searching package descriptions appears more difficult than need be.

 

- there is no way to search package descriptions from the command line

- rpmdrake only displays packages not yet installed, and rpmdrake-remove only displays packages currently installed. thus, you have to search in both of them to get an authoritative answer.

 

is there perhaps some other utility I am unaware of?
