[packagekit] yum backend system-update

[Richard Hughes]

Hey guys,

I'm currently doing a rawhide update with PackageKit. I've found a niggle:

update-system doesn't appear to use the signal "percentage" which
makes the first progress bar always stay at zero. It also emits "data"
instead of "package" as the packages are downloaded and installed. I
think I'm going to remove "data" from the interface completely as
package serves us well and allows us to put in the UI "Downloading
OpenOffice.org Clipart" rather than "downloading
net-tools-1.60-84.fc8.i386.rpm"

I've clarified the spec as I agree it was badly worded.

subpercentage   98
subpercentage   99
subpercentage   100
subpercentage   0
data    net-tools-1.60-84.fc8.i386.rpm
subpercentage   17
subpercentage   19

should be:

subpercentage   98
subpercentage   99
subpercentage   100
subpercentage   0
percentage 34
package    0 net-tools;1.60-84;i386;fedora Core Network Tools
subpercentage   17
subpercentage   19

Could one of the yum guys change data for package (using a package_id
and sumary) and also add the percentage updates? Thanks guys.

Richard.
