I've been silently going ballistic :). It's buggy but throwing it out without fixing the bugs gives no way for a regular user to install updates without becoming root, as Martin points out. We need to fix the bugs as a community, whether they are in Apper, PackageKit, the zypp backend or libzypp itself, instead of just tossing out the most visible part of the broken stack and reverting to the level of functionality SUSE had in 2001.
Then I suggest that the people that understand apper and its friends get busy everytime some one complains about a problem of which it is the culprit, and before the “habituals” tell the newcomer to get rid of it, intervene and suggest a solution to him(her). And this means that you people have to get busy in the mail list and the forums - specially the forums, because that is the place where it happens most. And no, sorry, don't ask me, because I do not understand apper and friends. :-) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
