imo any kind of 'universal' package installer is bad, as it adds a level of potential exploitation that would not otherwise be there.

How Listaller frontends look like

Please note that Listaller packages can be managed with PackageKit-Frontends, such as Apper or GNOME-PackageKit, which don't change their visuall appearance but just display and install Listaller packages.

This page shows the specialized Listaller frontends, which can be used to install/manager applications and which expose some Listaller-specific features in the installer.

KDE frontends

KDE AppInstall installing a package - Welcome screen



KDE AppInstall - Security hint



KDE AppInstall - Installation running



KDE AppInstall - Success
