Description Robert Yang 2015-10-28 03:16:17 UTC 
Make it can install pacakage like:

smart install lib32-bash rather than smart install bash@lib32_x86.

This can make it handle multilib pkgs easier, and also can make package_manager.py easier, for example, remove _pkg_translate_smart_to_oe() can be removed.
Comment 1 Robert Yang 2016-08-01 08:18:01 UTC 
smart maybe replaced by dnf in 2.3
Comment 2 Mark Hatle 2017-08-03 21:56:45 UTC 
DNF has replaced smart.  A similar change might be nice for DNF.  I've adjusted the title to capture this.

Kai, Has the work that you and WR devs been doing tested this or made it obsolete somehow? What's the plan?
Comment 4 Randy MacLeod 2022-12-08 16:13:39 UTC 
Not something we're going to do as Yocto project. If this is a problem for anyone , please send a patch.
