# add back the missing quick filter feature for synaptic # 2020-01-29 orcus # the quick filter is a help-full tool at synaptic as it does allow to combine # a search term with the selected categories and switching between them # so you enter 'gpu driver' for example and switch between # status-installed - not installed and so on apt install apt-xapian-index sudo update-apt-xapian-index -vf # on first run ... synaptic might show a message at the new added quick filter # "rebuilding search index ..." == give it just some time to finish before using
