Using PackageKit in GNOME programs

Do you develop a GNOME program and want to install extra stuff for your application? Want me to write you some code for your application to make it “just work”? Ideas I can think of: • Installing extensions in epiphany • Installing debuginfos in the GNOME crasher thing • Installing language packs in abiword • Installing clipart for scribus • Installing -devel packages in anjuta for the autocompletion • Making GIMP install it's own plugins when an obscure file format is opened Any other suggestions welcome. Please email me if you want some help. You can install a package based on the package name, or just by specifying a file that the package provides. All the yucky stuff like licence agreements and GPG auth is handled in libpackagekit-gnome. You'll need to be running Fedora 9 prerelease if you want precompiled rpm's that work. I'll make the code a configure option (–enable-packagekit) so it won't be a hard dep. Any takers?
