I am just trying to be the devil's advocate here. Package management
is a hairy and touchy issue, and distributions and their release
engineers tend to be touchy about these things. Afterall not everyone
(read Ubuntu and Debian) were so happy with PackageKit either,
initially. It took time to convince them. :-)
