]]>This look great, but I can't figure out what command to run after installing. Does anyone know?
I have noticed that the progress bar when downloading a package doesn't update in steps but just jumps from 0% to 100% once it is downloaded. Is this a known problem or do I have something misconfigured?
I think I might have stumbled upon a way to fix this. Try changing the line 'make -s' in the PKGBUILD to
make -s CFLAGS='-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64'
and rebuild.
]]>Hello,
I installed this today
$ sudo pacman -S gnome-settings-daemon-updates gnome-packagekit
The applications list is empty and I receive an error when running update-viewer.
$ gpk-update-viewer (gpk-update-viewer:2572): PackageKit-WARNING **: failed to get properties: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 127 Exiting as backend details could not be retrieved: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 127
Apparently, I have missed some configuration step. Any idea what I need to do?
BTW, I have had this (v 3.0.3) running on a different computer with no issues.
Thanks,
Brian)
Thanks for your efforts, PirateJonno

Sorry then. Reframing: what is this package cache? Because the option has a time to be determined (default=86400).
Sorry again, I didn't notice this change. If you're still wondering, the package cache (in PackageKit parlance) refers to what pacman calls the sync databases. It's what gets updated when you run pacman -Sy. The value 86400 is the length of one day in seconds.

I've had reports that this works on x86_64 but not i686. Unfortunately I have no idea what could be causing the difference in behaviour. Any debugging information you or others could gather would be great (I don't have access to an i686 machine).
If not running Gnome, you must also install the gnome-polkit package or it will fail to ask for authentication.
(At least, that was my experience with only XFCE installed.)
Yeah, I guess I ought to make this an optional dependency. However it is not a hard dependency because it is still possible to use gnome-packagekit on KDE (as far as I know anyway).

working ok for me
]]>I made the changes so that pleases me, but what does the "frequency-refresh-cache"?
Sorry, I don't know what you mean. The question doesn't make sense

]]>Installed but still am not notified about the update packages. I have to run the command manually. What do you suggest for the program to notify me?
You might want to change org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.updates.force-get-updates-login to TRUE and org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.updates.frequency-updates-notification to something like 86400 (24 * 60 * 60 seconds)
