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

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.

I didn't know that... I really liked Danttis solution, but upstream will have had a good reason for rejecting his example.

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! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

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

Hello, I just noticed that packagekit has not been packaged for Debian yet and stumbled across this ITP. I just wanted to ask what the status of this ITP is. Has there been some progress? Even though I had a quick look at the code on https://code.edge.launchpad.net/packagekit/ no Debian package is available yet. Is there any specific reason for this?
