Today i was looking at "How do I use PackageKit?"
section on the pk web site and notice that
lipackagekit-qt could be included too.
I mean you explain about the lipackagekit
but there's nothing mentioning the qt version...
Is it necessary to have docs about it?
cause if so i don't think it will be a
huge problem.. i can help Adrien with that...

and btw you say there about pkcon,
but IMHO it's impossible to get a package
installed with pkcon, why:

daniel at hommer:~/code/packagekit/pkbin$ ./bin/pkcon search name polkit-dbus
installed       libpolkit-dbus2-0.8-2                           library for accessing PolicyKit via D-Bus
installed       libpolkit-dbus-dev-0.8-2                        library for accessing PolicyKit via D-Bus - development files

ok now with this info try to install a package :P

daniel at hommer:~/code/packagekit/pkbin$ ./bin/pkcon install libpolkit-dbus2-0.8-2
Command failed:  Could not find package to install: libpolkit-dbus2-0.8-2

That's obvious pkcon need a package ID
but there is no method (at least i never found)
that can give me this info...

I think it should be a hidden tool for
we that develop packagekit..

If Bevan check packagekit web site he
might get angry with this message...
Command failed:  Could not find package to install: libpolkit-dbus2-0.8-2

Just my thoughts...

Daniel.
