Select packages to compare from the search results view

[gwennlbh]

Often, when i wanna install a package for something, but don't know any packages yet, i search by functionalty, and I end up with multiple packages that seem to fit what I need

I'd love to have a way to select some of them and then compare them, without having to go to any package's page

Kinda like "shopping for packages" if that makes sense ^^

I can take a look at this one: it seems pretty straightforward since the compare page only requires a comma-separated list of package names, so we can just create a link.

Since the package card and table view differ significantly in space, a general-purpose checkbox seems to fit quite well with the UI. It would make a floating bar appear with possible multiple actions in the future. For now, it would just have a "compare" link.
