We took 6~7 months to release the first that we call "stable" version. It was also really good to work with PackageKit guys, so we could fix our problems and sometimes yours, (please don't tell anyone that i committed to gnome packagekit :P ). But seriously we think this will make a huge difference in PackageKit world since now it will surely have more coming users. What can make a standard for package management on Linux variants. I'll just give a brief explanation of KPackageKit for those who don't know it yet. KPackageKit uses QPackageKit2, which is in version 2.0 since we had a problem with DBus and Adrien Bustany (the lib creator and developer) decided to completely rewrite it, so now (as for today) the lib don't have any more known bugs :D Also KPackageKit is divided in various sections:  - A KCM module to Add and Remove Soft  - A KCM module to manage updates  - A KCM module to change KPackageKit settings  - A KDED module to keep track of automatically updates    and calling the Smart-Icon  - A Smart Icon that shows the running transactions  - KPackageKit executable to also show the popups of notifications Well a very good thing that KPackageKit has is the KDED module that allow us to have a single module consuming 1~2 mb of Ram and "not slowing" the startup of KDE. It keeps tracks of the running transactions and if it detects one it calls kpackagekit-smart-icon to show then. This last one exits in 7 minutes after no more transactions running so you free memory and also KDE startup (since the default behavior of KDE is to save the runnig application to the next log in). And kpackagekit executable can loads all the Kcm modules to create a ui like an application and also when called with --smart-update does the proper thing to display/or install updates. The KCM modules are the ones you can include on Kde's System Settings which make it really userfriendly since most begginers users would expect software management there. Well Thanks to all how made this possible (quoting Richard) And Please try it so we can have more feedback. http://tinyurl.com/4hggzq Cheers, Daniel. </div></div> <hr size=1>Novos endereços, o Yahoo! que você conhece. <a href="http://br.rd.yahoo.com/mail/taglines/mail/*http://br.new.mail.yahoo.com/addresses">Crie um email novo</a> com a sua cara @ymail.com ou @rocketmail.com.</body></html>
