Description
This test case ensures that the pkcon
command can effectively search for a package and retrieve its details using the PackageKit.
Setup
Ensure that PackageKit
is installed and running on your Fedora system.
How to test
- Open a terminal.
- Execute the command
pkcon search name firefox
to search for the "firefox" package. - Next, identify the package ID for the firefox package from the search results.
- Now, execute the command
pkcon get-details [PACKAGE_ID]
replacing[PACKAGE_ID]
with the actual package ID from the previous step to get details about the firefox package. - Execute
pkcon get-packages
to get list of all available packages. - Execute
pkcon remove package
to remove packages. - Execute
pkcon refresh
to refresh cache.
Expected Results
- The command
pkcon search name firefox
returns a list of packages containing the word "firefox". - The firefox package should be among the results listed.
- The
pkcon get-details [PACKAGE_ID]
command should return detailed information about the firefox package including version, size, and description.
Optional
Optionally, explore other pkcon
commands like installing, updating, and removing packages to check their functionality.
