Thing like checking for updates and refreshing the cache will surely
be configurable at some point. Should we touch a file somewhere for
each task so we know when the event finished last? For example, we
shouldn't be doing a refresh and a get-updates at the same time each
time pk-update-icon starts. What if the user wants to check daily for
updates, but then reboots a couple times a day... waste.
I was thinking checking the mtime on /var/cache/PackageKit/{refresh,get-updates}
thoughts?
