Sorry I don't know how to use ports or what does that error mean, but kpackagekit means that you are trying to use an old version since it was renamed to Apper long ago... - Oct 10 2013

It's a known bug, because other widgets don't repaing the background, it's a bug in the theme engine which should repaint after an animation, which doesn't happen. - Aug 07 2012

System Software by dantti 224 comments

now it's easy you are missing the most important dependencie: PackageKit. if you are in Debian install the packaged version, if you are in any other distro check for compiled packages, otherwise changes are you will need to write a backend to talk to the package managent of the distro. But most modern distros have a backend for it. - Oct 25 2011

you are missing the install prefix:

I use it every day and it works fine, you have some conflict that can be avoided by not updating all packages, but I can't know what your problem is if you don't paste the whole problem.
Please take an screenshot of the error or something and additionally use pkmon and put it on a paste bin. - Oct 13 2011

Sorry don't get very much what you have said, but packagekit works on resolving deps exactly the same way as apt-get would. - Oct 13 2011
Apper

System Software by dantti 224 comments

Yes, it is a problem, tho I don't have the time to fix this by myself, if you can help you just need to convert those tools to talk debconf protocol. - Oct 13 2011

System Software by dantti 224 comments

there are two ways of having icons, the first is with AppInstall data (which had become deprecated but still in use in Ubuntu - will be replaced by AppStream soon), or by having scanDesktopFiles in /etc/PackageKit/PackageKit.conf then you refresh your cache and it should start showing icons for installed apps.. - Oct 13 2011

System Software by dantti 224 comments

No, apt-listbugs is disabled by PackageKit because it requires stdin which is not supported by PackageKit. In the future, if someone change apt-listbugs to use debconf then it will work. - Oct 13 2011

Well the pending changes is currently just a queue to install what you clicked, you don't even need to go there, but otoh I think I could use some improvements by simulating the install, but it's not so simple...

I'm working on this but as PackageKit does not provide that info I can't instantly add this feature, but I'm about to add this to PackageKit itself hopefully PackageKit 0.7.1 or .2 will have it :D - Jul 29 2011

System Software by dantti 224 comments

Yes thanks, I got sad when I hear the news (expecially because nobody talked to me about that).
But don't worry Apper is going to be developed and improved further, currently it's the only Package manager available to all major distros out there (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, openSuse and more).
keep an eye on my blog soon I'll be posting news about the new features and the feature of Apper.

Yes, it does, but by default on Kubuntu it does not display unless there are packages to be removed.
If you want to see them all the time go to KPackageKit settings and check "Show confirmation Dialog when installing/updating"

You need to have a sqlite db file in /usr/share/app-install/desktop.db check to see if it's there and readable.

Are you using Fedora? If so an updated package will be released soon, I've added a new method to packagekit-qt I thought it was on the 0.6.10 version but it seems that I was wrong.. - Dec 21 2010

Not by itself.. but yes as we have PackageKit
in SID it's way easier.

>And under: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=kpackagekit;dist=unstable
>I read that there is no maintainer für kpackagekit is that true ?
yes, there is no _Debian_ maintainer yet, but Matthias Klumpp
is about to package it, if you can help him please do :D

Ok, as explained on this LP bug, KPackageKit is actually able to use apt-cacher BUT the config _must_ go into kde proxy settings or /etc/PackageKit/PackageKit.conf.
Not the best solution but I have fixed this issue now, I'm just not sure a new package will be created for this to work. - Nov 04 2010

You need a newer KDE, I think at least kde 4.4 but not 100% sure if I''m using a kde 4.5 class - Oct 28 2010

Please ask kde german translation team to update that. - Oct 13 2010

Yes, you need packagekit-qt >= 0.6.8 which is and won't be available at Kubuntu 10.4, but Kubuntu 10.10 already has the lastest packages. - Oct 06 2010

Please tell me which distro, backend, and version of PackageKit and KPackageKit that are you using. - Apr 11 2010

System Software by dantti 224 comments

There is no such application view that talks with PackageKit, you are probably confusing with some other application.
That screen shot from gnome packagekit is showing the gnome desktop group... just that...

1. If you don't like seeing 15 vlc related packages complain to your distro.

2. If you want to see GNOME packages just click on the combo box and select GNOME desktop.

FYI Both applications have exactly the same functionality. - Mar 22 2010

I've planned to improve the search on the list when there are alread packages there (no time yet),
for the others it's just not possible for now... - Mar 18 2010

System Software by dantti 224 comments

Hmm I believe that with the coming version (0.6) this is already fixed - Mar 13 2010
Apper

System Software by dantti 224 comments

This happened because packagekit libs were not installed on the right place, that's why I told you to use a local dir for the prefix. After that manually copy the files to the right dirs.
BTW I think it's best to try first with aptcc backend, apt has lots of deps in Debian, which you can try to get them after you are sure PackageKit is working.. (or stick with aptcc :D ) - Mar 12 2010
Apper

System Software by dantti 224 comments

Right, well the build stuff is quite simple although I must admit could be more detailed, I run the autogen script as follows: ./autogen --enable-gtk-doc --prefix=/home/daniel/code/packagekit/pkbin/ --enable-aptcc --with-default-backend=aptcc --with-security-framework=dummy

Be careful with '--with-security-framework=dummy' cause it will let all users do everything, I use this since we didn't have polkit-kde working with polkit-1 but now I works so you might want to try to remove that.
The --enable-aptcc enables a backend written by me to work with apt (made in c++), but if you prefer you can use the python version (which will be --enable-apt).

hope this helps,
Best. - Mar 09 2010

Your PackageKit is not properly installed, check if the DBus confs are installed on the right places, I develop KPackageKit and aptcc backend on Debian squeeze. - Mar 03 2010
