KPackageKit

[penguin7009]

Leiche, try installing that package from the command line and see if you get any error messages.  rpm -i package name.  The only thing I find in this version is that kpackage doesn't tell which packages are needed and offer to download them from the available repositories as usual.  I think this may be fixed in beta3?

Updated to 0.5.4-3 and here is what I get .........

"Impossible
These items are not supported by your backend, or they are not files.
%i
%F"

Dropping the two offending items from the launch command in a terminal allows KPackagekit to open but it does not show that it knows anything about the available software in the repo.
I tried reinstalling but lost the menu item.

I tried Smart and that shows quite a number of problems apparently ............  like "dkms" has a dependency of "kernel-devel-latest" which does not exist it seems.
It also did not show anything for update, although there is a list of packages for update in Synaptic.

It appears to me that neither of the two packages are accessing the repo  ............

FOUND IT!!!!!!!!

In Smart - Edit - Channels  ............  all the channels are given the same priority and this clash prevents any from being accessed.

Change the channel you use to something higher than 0 and then Smart - and thus Kpackagekit - can access the repo.

I am confused by the present arrangement of the packages.

It is my understanding that packagekit itself depends on a backend like APT or Smart.
This dependency does not appear to be present ....  I may be very wrong!

Kpackagekit, which I understood to be a front end to packagekit, has Smart as a dependency.

Generally I would have thought that packagekit would be compiled to use one backend - apt or smart maybe -  and that the front ends (Kpackagekit) would not have a dependency on smart or apt.

Of course I may be misunderstanding how all these things are supposed to go together ....

I also tried to install gnome-packagekit but that won't install because there is a dependency that is not available. I will look to an update which might fix that.

regards.
