Bug Description
Hi,
I was just playing around with packgekit api and gdbus, and come with something i find very simple and convenient in our way to manage third party applications.
Just check the video attached.
I think we could use that with inkscape but also blender, freior-effects, missings codecs, ... would be very usefull and user friendly !
Works great in fedora 16, didn't test with ubuntu (packagekit is in universe repo, don't know if it's a problem ?)
It is only about 10 lines of codes (and so we can remove lots of messagebox around the code), but for sure needs some improvement (like try catch, autolaunch of app when installed, transient windows, ...)
Let me know what you think !
Thanks !

Interesting. And it is not incompatible with the Dependencies list/wizard, I say even complementary. And It is a easy/simple way for users to install Dependencies. At condition of course that he install packagekit.
