I was just reading over some threads on this list and noticed a few things here and there about KPackageKit. I understand that it was included by default in 11.4 because the Update Applet was unmaintained, but isn't Yast2 Installer perfectly able to do updates? Was KPackageKit needed just because Yast doesn't remind users about updates?
This is the only reason I can think of to use KPackageKit. Yast2 Installer is so much more advanced (which is good for our target userbase) and it is tightly integrated into openSUSE since it's a SUSE product!
KPK would surely not be included in the default installation without the updater applet/update notifications. But actually some people seem to use KPK as the primary package management, because it's "simpler" and more integrated in KDE than YaST. (I'm not one of them). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
