* I'm looking for the PackageKit APIs, to port LSC to PackageKit
(PackageKit has also some utils to determinate applications-packages and
so, we will be able to change it to Light Software Center and

Other reasons to switch:
GTK3
Better desktop integration (Chromium themeing is limited and hard to
include as default)
What do you guys think?
+1, i love firefox, chromium is too much for dummies ;-)

Thanks for the update. I think the last items should be :

you can translate it when you want, the only problem is that i'm not so

i can say that on my 64 bit system lubuntu software center uses 50 MB
RAM less than ubuntu software center (30 mb). the script will be less

user-friendly synaptic, and not a
version which would have minimal
dependencies, probably co-working with its contemporary authors.
