That said, both are using zypper as the backend, so there the result is the same in the end.
Nope. apper uses packagekit.
Check you facts Carlos. Packagekit uses zypper.
No. Packagekit uses libzypp, which is also used by zypper. There is a large difference.
Libzypp is where the work is done.
zypper - Command line software manager using libzypp < official description
There really isn't a difference in how the work gets done.
Yes, there is. Packagekit doesn't use zypper, it uses the library. It is very different. Both use the library differently and obtain different results some times, and give different information. When a GUI calls the command line manager it is called a frontend to that command line program. This is not the case, both are independent programs. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
