Comment 44 for bug 342671

I'm sorry for my last comment. I know you are doing your job but I was very upset because adept never worked as expected and now kpackagekit isn't working either, so for two years there hasn't been a fully functional package manager in Kubuntu and that's one of the obvious examples of Kubuntu being second in support and lagging behind Ubuntu.
Anyway, I appreciate your work and I understand that this is a complex problem involving all the design of Packagekit (and that Synaptic and Ubuntu in general don't suffer it because they don't use packagekit at all). I heard that KPackage will be replaced by KPackagekit in KDE 4.4, so having more support upstream maybe will solve the problem faster.
