<description>
<p>
PackageKit allows performing simple software management tasks over a DBus interface e.g. refreshing the cache,
updating, installing and removing software packages or searching for multimedia codecs and file handlers.
</p>
<p>
The work is done by backends which make use of the package manager shipped by the corresponding distribution.
The main benefits are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>unified interface on several distributions</li>
<li>fine grained privileges by using PolicyKit</li>
<li>independence from a running desktop session during processing</li>
</ul>
