[packagekit] [PATCH] SQLite Package-Cache for PackageKit

[Matthias Klumpp]

Hi!
No, I want all available packages for the cache ;-)
BUT to implement a basic software-center, only GUI packages will be
enough. I don't have many ideas how to make the cache faster (but I'll
ask some people), if this doesn't work, I'll make it just fetch GUI
packages, as this will be enough for now.
Thanks for reviewing!

P.S: That "failed to find" thing shouldn't happen (and doesn't happen
with Aptcc) - I'll look into it :)
