Changelog for PackageKit-browser-plugin-0.7.4-2.5.1.i586.rpm :
Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 dimstarAATTopensuse.org
- Add PackageKit-zypp-packagesize.patch: libzypp changed their
API and now returns Bytes instead of KBytes.
- Add call to autoreconf, as above patch touches the build system.

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 cooloAATTsuse.com
- gcc46 is no longer required for libzypp

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 vuntzAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 0.7.4:
+ New Features:
- Deprecate Message(untrusted-package) from the API
- Install pk-task-sync.h as part of the public API
- Add full integration so that UI can know when to repair the
system
+ Libraries (glib): Add GType\'s for packagekit-glib2 enumerations
+ Libraries (qt2): Add simulateRepairSystem and
repairSystem(bool) to the Transaction API
+ Libraries (python): Speed up get_package_list
+ Zypp Backend:
- Build pool before resolving
- Do not set a PACKAGE_NOT_FOUND error when resolving packages
+ Non-zypp backends updates.
+ Bugfixes:
- Add some documentation about the auto-untrusted logic
- Add some documentation for the new RepairSystem transaction
interaction
- Do not allow an empty resolve call to be passed down to the
backends
- Do not include the website in the tarball
- Drop --print-reply from dbus-send command used on
suspend/resume
- Remove doc subpackage, as it only contained the website which is
not shipped anymore in the tarball. Add a Obsoletes for it to the
main subpackage for smooth upgrades.
- Add a force_gcc46 define that we can use to force building with
gcc 4.6. This is needed in Factory for now, as libzypp doesn\'t
build with gcc 4.7 right now. When this is set, we use gcc46-c++
BuildRequires and export CC and CXX environment variables to use
gcc 4.6.
- Add
0003-Revert-packagekit-qt2-Since-new-methods-and-enums-wh.patch:
the soversion of libpackagekit-qt2 has been decreased by
accident, so revert this change for now.

system.

Wed Feb 15 13:00:00 2012 vuntzAATTopensuse.org
- Move dbus xml interface files from devel subpackage to main
subpackage: PackageKit now requires them at runtime to work.
- Move the zypp backend to a new backend-zypp subpackage: this will
make it clearer to users which backend is being used. It also
makes it easier to test small changes in the zypp backend.
- Move all test backends to devel subpackage, as they are not
useful to users.
- Add PackageKit-backend Requires to main subpackage, so we get a
working backend by default. This will be PackageKit-backend-zypp
since nothing else provides this right now.

Fri May 6 14:00:00 2011 vuntzAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 0.6.14:
+ Lots of nice bugfixes in this release, along with slight
changes to the SetProxy() and DownloadPackages() D-Bus API. If
you\'re using either packagekit-glib or packagekit-qt then
there\'s no change required as the libraries have symbol
fallbacks.
+ The packageKit-qt2 library has been committed. It is eventually
aiming to replace packagekit-qt.

method

memory. Fixes rh#684464

- Drop PackageKit-fix-build.patch: fixed upstream.
- Change Requires of \"Packagekit = %{version} to Recommends for
libpackagekit-glib2-14 and libpackagekit-qt14: a strict Requires
like this goes against the goal of the shared library packaging
policy. Also, the users of those libraries should gracefully
handle the case where the PackageKit daemon is not running or
doesn\'t understand the D-Bus requests.
- Create libpackagekit-qt2-0 and libpackagekit-qt2-devel subpackage
for the new libpackagekit-qt2 library.
- Remove explicit Requires for packages from various devel
subpackages as they will automatically be added the pkgconfig()
way:
+ PackageKit-devel: glib2-devel, NetworkManager-devel,
sqlite3-devel
+ libpackagekit-glib2-devel: glib2-devel, NetworkManager-devel,
sqlite3-devel (as well as PackageKit itself)
+ libpackagekit-qt-devel: libqt4-devel (as well as PackageKit
itself)
- Mark branding-upstream subpackage as noarch.
- Set BUILD_CNF to 1 as the file search works again. This means the
pk-command-not-found utility will be built again.

- Call relevant macros in %post/%postun:

type definition.
- Pass %{?no_lang_C} to %find_lang so that english documentation
can be packaged with the program, and not in the lang subpackage.

- Add %{_libexecdir}/gst-install-plugins-helper as a ghost file in

is not yet recommended for external client programs use
packagekit-glib2 as the API is not yet set in stone and may
change. This is expected in 0.6.x.

change, and rename libpackagekit-qt12-devel to
libpackagekit-qt-devel to follow the library policy. Make
libpackagekit-qt-devel obsolete libpackagekit-qt12-devel, but not
provide it (since it\'s not the same ABI).
