Description (last modified by )
It would be good if one could see if a package uses core component and not many 3partys packages. For example if a package uses QT GUI instead of the one provided with Haiku or uses it's own media libs instead of the media kid.
Don't know how to express what I want but the example demonstrate it.

I'd love a feature like this. Should it be part of the package / recipe.. or only in HDS?
Another method may be implement some "tagging / keyword" system in HDS. We could tag QT apps as QT, native apps as "Native", etc.

I have a change going into the next version of HDS which will allow packages to be toggled on/off as "supplying a native desktop application". I would prefer to not make this a separate category as those are things like "graphics", "education" etc...
This will go to deployment and then the admins will be able to switch on who can categorize the packages. There is a report to dump which packages are marked as supplying a native desktop application to help with management.
Once the data is a good enough state, the GUI can add some means of indicating if a package is supplying a native desktop application.
This is still pending for HDS to implement and then it can come down in the meta-data from there.
