The problem isn't only the outdated aptdaemon package but also some hardcoded bits in the latest software-center. @matthias: The Ubuntu packages won't work. @de: If you want to install a system for novice users please don't use unstable or testing. What are you missing from the software-center version in Squeeze? It seems to make it job well. If you want to have an "always" up-to-data desktop distro - use Ubuntu.

Atleast I'll be glad.<br> <br> Stable is too outdated (like firefox-3.5 and chromium 6), it has unique bugs specially in KDE, Gnome 2.x is good in there but Gnome 2.x is dead and people don't like 3. Older package also means missing enhancements a lot of which are critical.<br> <br> The current software center in 2.x shows all graphical and non graphical packages which confuses a lot of users. The last thing you want is a user to install ffmpeg and say there was no entry in the menus.<br> <br> I already tried Ubuntu, it's QA is too bad the community is also problematic and inexperienced. QA is the main reason behind Debian.<br> </div> </div><meta http-equiv="x-dns-prefetch-control" content="on"><br>_______________________________________________<br>PackageKit mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:PackageKit@lists.freedesktop.org" href="mailto:PackageKit@lists.freedesktop.org">PackageKit@lists.freedesktop.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/packagekit" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/packagekit</a><br><br><br></div></div></blockquote></div></div></body></html>
