Nobody in gnome team is looking at it, then, we have an obsolete version in the tree that is still hard requiring consolekit. Looks like Fabio did job regarding packagekit support in Gentoo/Sabayon, will CC him to know if he is interested
Well I did make sure the gnome frontend was not too out of date and will continue to do so even if I'm late for 3.8, but I certainly didn't touch the core component and would appreciate help on that.
Didn't even know it was finally usable in Gentoo :O
I think it should be easy to bump gnome-packagekit from 3.6. Let me know if you need any help.
Feel free to work on it if you have time for this
