[Bug 1040086] Re: Please sync packagekit 0.7.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Micah Gersten]

Well, both of these are using python3-aptdaemon.pkcompat ATM apparently
which provides packagekit-system-interface in quantal.  The goal is to
not have the packagekit binary in main.

Title:
  Please sync packagekit 0.7.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in “packagekit” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Please sync packagekit 0.7.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
    * Merge with Debian, remaining Ubuntu changes:
    * debian/control:
      - Recommend packagekit-system-interface instead of
        python-aptdaemon.pkcompat: we care about the dbus interface, now provided
        by the python3 package, not the python module.
      - Have the libraries recommend python-aptdaemon.pkcompat over packagekit as
        we don't want the latter to be installed by default.

  All Ubuntu changes are in the Debian package for a long time, the last Ubuntu merge was
  useless, as it re-added stuff which was already there. Simply dropping the Ubuntu delta
  should be okay here.

  Changelog entries since current quantal version 0.7.5-2ubuntu1:

  packagekit (0.7.6-1) unstable; urgency=low

    * New upstream bugfix release: 0.7.6
