PackageDescription | provides a software installation daemon
PackageKit allows to perform 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 privilleges by using PolicyKit
- independecy from a running desktop session during the processing |
