others, do not include PackageKit and instead expect users to update using
yumex-dnf or dnf itself. So ideally an offline update mechanism can be added
to dnf, and then exposed in yumex-dnf. But we may have to consider installing
PackageKit in those spins. My concern with this is that PackageKit and dnf do
not share history and many users are used to using dnf.
What about implementing yumex-pk, I mean another tool forked from
yumex but backed by PackageKit, and eventually dropping dnf and
leaving PK as the only tool, both commandline and GUI?
I know we have GNOME Software which already does it but in
more high level and less power user oriented manner.
