[packagekit] gpk-application 2.28.0 on Ubuntu 9.10 amd64

[Daniel Hernandez Bahr]

Hello, everyone!

I just installed packagekit-gnome on my laptop (ubuntu-9.10-amd64 as 
specified in subject) and i am getting some (i think) wierd behaviour 
(off course it could also mean that i am not familiar at all with how to 
use it).

the first thing I noticed is that the lateral view where (i expected to 
see software categories -Development, Accessories and such) there is 
only a "All packages" entry.
other thing is that in the Software Sources dialog there is no entry at 
all (i am aware that the policy is not to let modify sources here, but i 
hoped i could see them at least).

Well, anyway i intended to remove Synaptic so i searched for it (and 
found it) and mark it for removal; clicked the Apply button and the 
bottom right corner of the main window and a dialog showed up, telling 
me that there where 9 packages that would be removed as they depended on 
Synaptic. I could not select any of them (to get some info or anything) 
and a should click either a "Cancel" button or a "Remove" button. I 
proceeded to "Remove" and the dialgo dissapeared but nothing else happened.

¿Is there something i should have done and didn't?

I closed the gpk-application window and restarted it and my cpu ussage 
raised to (nearly) 100%.. is this normal?

Best regards,

D.H. Bahr
