Hi. I was looking forward twards a simple graphical package manager for the very end user (Mac/Win migrants), since Ubuntu's software center isn't available, I decided to use package kit. It appears that the Debian frontend of packagekit isn't at the right state, the search results were very wrong using the GTK frontend. I used pkcon to get some sample output - Search string -- pkcon --filter=gui search details browser Result: Available      alevt-1:1.6.2-4.amd64                      X11 Teletext/Videotext browser Available      awn-applets-python-core-0.4.0-4.all        A collection of applets for Awn, written in python Installed      banshee-extension-liveradio-2.2.0-1.all    LiveRadio extension for Banshee Available      betaradio-1.3-1.amd64                      Internet radio of Taiwan Available      cairo-dock-quick-browser-plugin-2.3.0~3-2.amd64    Cairo-dock -
