Does Rigo display the Sum Total Data of pending upd[Solved]

[dirigible]

Rigo is telling me that it has 179 updates for my Sabayon KDE.
It looks like the KDE desktop will be upgraded to 4.9.3
I like new stuff but don't want to hit the limit of my data allowance in the middle of these upgrades.

Is there somewhere in Rigo where I can see the sum total data of all the updates?

I haven't seen one, but the command line side of Entropy, Equo has a "pretend" parameter (-p or --pretend) that does just what you want- it works out what it has to do, but doesn't actually do it.

For example,

Code: Select all

[host][user]# equo install kde-meta --pretend
>>  @@ These are the selected packages:
>>    # (1/1) [sabayon-weekly] kde-base/kde-meta-4.9.3
>>     Versions: Not installed / NoTag / NoRev ===> 4.9.3 / NoTag / 0
>>    Action:       Install
>>  @@ Packages involved: 1
>>  @@ Calculating dependencies...
[...]
>>  @@ Download size: 679.4MB
>>  @@ Used disk space: 1330.5MB
>>  @@ You need at least: 2689.2MB of free space
>>  @@ No configuration files to update.

I know that is with install rather than upgrade, but upgrade's output is just as relevant. (Tested in a VM, don't have a shared clipboard yet!)

Forgot to say, to use equo like this, you use the following commands in a terminal. Or a kerminal/whatever KDE calls it

Code: Select all

su
[password]
equo update
equo upgrade --pretend

It is planned to enable such a functionality in equo-152: [equo] add new command "equo query updates":
This command can be used in update-motd scripts for generating system update status information..
Well, it isn't available to me, yet. I guess, Rigo will have the function you want sooner or later.

Thanks, that worked. I don't have enough data left in my account.
Looks like I'll have to wait a couple of weeks when my data allowance is recharged.

It would be better if Rigo displayed this information upfront.
Do Sabayon Developers take feature requests?

They do. You have to sign up on Bugzilla therefore. Please write down the requested feature in the header as it is common to do so.
