I didn't knew that was possible to install with the package name, but this message could help a lot, and maybe a column with only the package name would be better as at least i like to double click on thing in the terminal and paste with the 3rd button.. >Sure, if you don't have docs then a lot fewer people will use your >library -- I've found the good docs in libpackagekit made a big >difference to the users of PackageKit. Ok i'll talk to Adrien to see how we could do that.. many thanks, Daniel. </div><div style="font-family: Courier New,courier,monaco,monospace,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">----- Mensagem original ---- De: Richard Hughes <hughsient@gmail.com> Para: PackageKit users and developers list <packagekit@lists.freedesktop.org> Enviadas: Segunda-feira, 11 de Agosto de 2008 5:50:16 Assunto: Re: [packagekit] How do I use PackageKit?

Sure, if you don't have docs then a lot fewer people will use your library -- I've found the good docs in libpackagekit made a big difference to the users of PackageKit. > and btw you say there about pkcon, > but IMHO it's impossible to get a package > installed with pkcon, why: > > daniel@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@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 Sure, you want to use either the package ID, or the package name - not the name-version. > 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 showing the user package_id's would be a mistake, as they are not easy to understand. > I think it should be a hidden tool for > we that develop packagekit..
