Not neccesary, it may be single file /etc/PackageKit/Backend.conf and it may contain [dummy], [alpm], [apt] sections and [alpm:mapping], [apt:gpgconfig] subsections.

It just will make configuration system for all the backends unified. But if we stick to using /etc/PackageKit/${backend_name}.conf, then, surely, GKeyFile makes sense.
