2010-08-25 Thread Matthias Klumpp
PackageKit/KPackageKit has Debconf-Support now:
http://dantti.wordpress.com/2010/08/23/debconf-support-on-kpackagekit/
Can PackageKit be uploaded to Debian now, or is there something left
speaking against it?

I am nowadays working nearly exclusively on aptdaemon and
session-installer - apt based alternantives to PackageKit. So I won't 
have the time to push PackageKit. Feel free to adopt.

Hmm... Okay. I'll checkout if I can maintain it and if it gets accepted
for Sid. (Probably not during freeze, but later)
Thanks for the response!

If you need some assistance on the integration, feel free to contact
me.

On the backend side I would recommend to stay with the Python based
apt backend by default. Kubuntu recently switched to aptcc but this is
also a little bit problematic. (I am biased here since I am the author
of the apt backend :)

To add the debconf support to the apt backend are only a few lines of
code.

Cheers,

Sebastian

What are the problems with the APTcc backend? (I use it here and only
noticed most tasks are a lot faster)

Bug#468132: ITP: packagekit -- a distribution neutral, interface to manage software packages

2010-08-25 Thread Matthias Klumpp
Hmm... I'll repackage some parts of PackageKit instead of taking the
Ubuntu version.
Maybe a package reorganisation is also needed. I think this will fix some
bugs reported agains packagekit at Launchpad.
(And the new debhelper will be used)

Why does the Font-Finding application of PackageKit not work in Debian? (A
comment claims it won't work but does not explain why)

Is something going on on this bug?
It would be excellent if we had PackageKit packaged on Debian too. A
solution for debconf is also in progress!

 Sorry to say. But AFAIK the debconf solution is currently far from being
 resolved:
 
 The approach of Dantti was not accepted by debconf upstream and the
 preferred one of upstream hasn't been yet written.
I didn't know that... I really liked Danttis solution, but upstream will
have had a good reason for rejecting his example.

Is this the reason why PackageKit is not present in Debian?

 there are some concerns of Debian developers against the non
 interactiveness of PackageKit. So I want to have a working and mature
 version uploaded to Debian to raise the acceptance.

 But it this will happen in the near future.

 The packaging for Debian can be found here:

 lp:~glatzor/packagekit/packagekit-debian

Currently, packagekit is shipped with Ubuntu; it is maintained using
https://code.launchpad.net/~packagekit .  I can't find any packagekit-debian
branch.

What's the status of getting this into Debian?  Perhaps an upload to
experimental of the package as shipped with Ubuntu is useful?

Bye,

Joost

The packaging is already done. It can be found here
https://code.edge.launchpad.net/packagekit/

I am waiting for my sponsor to upload it to experimental.
