describes a group that contains all the newest packages.
Is there a way a backend could provide a meta-group for the last 50
newest added packages? Does any other backend other than apt provide
this information?
Richard.

"search-group none recent" please. Using a groups provides a way for the
backend to inform the frontend if it supports the feature using a single
bit in the PkGroupEnum.

yes of cause 'recent' was just a substitute for the GROUP_RECENT enum
(or what it is called)<br>

Ahh. Can we stick to the newest _added_ packages for "search-group none
recent" please -- I'm not sure we want to add "recent updates" to the
searching interface, but maybe to the update viewer interface. That's an
addition for another day.

how do you know if a package is a new added package or a just updated
package ?<br>
of cause you can do that if you have a older version installed.<br>
<br>
Ex.<br>
foo is not install, and foo-2.0 exist in the repo with a recent date,
but you have no way to see if the package is new added or newly update,
you<br>
can just see it is updated recently.<br>
if foo-1.0 is installed then you know that foo-2.0 is an update.<br>
<br>
We can define that <br>
search-group none GROUP_RECENT should return recent non installed
packages.<br>
<br>
but what about:<br>
<br>
search-group installed GROUP_RECENT<br>
<br>
what should it return ?.<br>
