Bug Description

Binary package hint: kubuntu-default-settings

I find the kpackagekit or "Software Management" is to deep in the menus for the average user to find...
Applications -> System -> Software Management

I feel there should be a "Add / Remove programs" in the first level under Applications at the top of the list.
Or it would be good to have a "Add new programs" under the Computer level that runs kpackagekit

If you want to have kpackagekit say "Add/Remove Applications" you'd have to file a bug against kpackagekit, though I am not in favor of such a change.

Anyway, I implemented the section option (i.e. have kpackagekit in the system tab of kickoff), seems most space efficient and AFAIK that is also where openSUSE stuffed YaST to.
