Package: packagekit-backend-aptcc Version: 0.6.10-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream
PackageKit's aptcc backend currently misses install_files support. I suppose that : (1) I integrate the needed functions in APT, based on those currently written in Python (apt.debfile) (2) The PK backend calls the functions from APT The question now is what information is needed from APT for aptcc to work correctly. Information on this is appreciated. Alternatively, we could do this in aptcc itself; although this might lead to code duplication (if we do it in APT, we can change python-apt's apt.debfile to use the functions from APT and avoid the duplicate code). That part is important in order to port the file installation part of software-center to PackageKit, and to enable the session file installer.
