Documentation related to packagekit
Description: Provides a package management service
PackageKit allows performing simple software management tasks over a DBus
interface e.g. refreshing the cache, updating, installing and removing
software packages or searching for multimedia codecs and file handlers.
The work is done by backends which make use of the package manager shipped by
the corresponding distribution. PackageKit is not meant to replace
advanced tools like Synaptic.
The main benefits are:
- unified interface on several distributions
- fine grained privileges by using PolicyKit
- independency from a running desktop session during the processing
