+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> OK, I did a little search on Ajax, and I think that I understand now.
+</I>&gt;<i> It seems that you're proposing autocompletion on the text typed in the
+</I>&gt;<i> field - and only matches will be downloaded.
+</I>&gt;<i> But if it starts with 2 characters, there could be still 1000's of names
+</I>&gt;<i> downloaded.
+</I>&gt;<i> I would suggest that we would need at least 5 characters to restrict the
+</I>&gt;<i> names downloaded to a reasonable number.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Also, there is another factor. If we are looking for srpm names, but
+</I>&gt;<i> the user enters binary rpm names, there will not necessarily be a match,
+</I>&gt;<i> particularly if the srpm results in more than one binary rpm.
+</I>&gt;<i> So in some cases this will not work.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> But I have another idea.
+</I>&gt;<i> Maybe we could have separate (binary) rpm and srpm fields.
+</I>&gt;<i> There is a button on the page, which will invoke the command to give the
+</I>&gt;<i> srpms associated with the binary rpms.
+</I>&gt;<i> Would this be workable ?
+</I>&gt;<i> Something that would execute
+</I>&gt;<i> $ rpm -q --qf '{sourcerpm}' {pkg-name}
+</I>&gt;<i> and would automatically enter the result in the srpm field, or at least
+</I>&gt;<i> display it so it could be typed in.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, this would have to be done by the user experiencing the
+</I>&gt;<i> problems, to ensure having the correct version.
+</I>&gt;<i> We would also have to deal with the cases where more than one rpm has
+</I>&gt;<i> the bug.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If we can automate this, we can dispense with the potential problems
+</I>&gt;<i> associated with a list of srpms. And it would be (at least somewhat)
+</I>&gt;<i> more efficient both server and client side, as well.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Just an idea
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Andr&#233;
+</I>
+this is no more than sort of TAB completion on the urpmi commands.
+
+averagely 2 characters have ~600 possibilities; meaning that 2 chars give
+average 25 srpm results. in practice this can be 150 results or something
+
+consider also the fact that these are src.rpm , so huge lib**** and the fact
+that we won't be starting with everything...
+
+imho instead of destroying an idea you don't know much about; why don't i
+implement it and then you can evaluate if it's bad or not.
