Well, assuming you've already got the repo-detail (repo-id, short
description, if enabled) you can't really get much more details about
the repo from PackageKit. You only get repo-signature-required when the
client needs to expose the user to a GPG signing UI, not in regular use.

We don't expose low level things like urls as you can't really expose
mirror management, or different urls for different transports in a clean
way. Why do you want to know the base url, what are you trying to do?
