10 the best, how can one actually use the current one? Once you start moving your mouse up to your favorites apps you pass over a different category and the list of apps changes :#

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.

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

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..

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"

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

yes, there is no _Debian_ maintainer yet, but Matthias Klumpp
is about to package it, if you can help him please do :D
>Apart from that Kpackgekit is a great Application and big thanks to the developers.
you welcome. - Nov 17 2010

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

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...
(which also works in kpk) - Mar 22 2010

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

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,
