@lefty.crupps: I am running Ubuntu 9.10. I am assuming you are running KDE? if you want, you can install from source. download the file from here:

http://www.kde-apps.org/CONTENT/content-files/84745-KPackageKit-0.5.1.1.7z

you will need to have installed:

PackageKit >= 0.5.4
KdeLibs headers of Kde4
KDE >= 4.3
p7zip-full (to uncompress the package)

Compiling:
7z e FILENAME.7z
cd KPackageKit-RELEASE_NUMBER
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/
make
su
make install

that should do it for you.

KPackageKit isn’t available on Debian, which distro are you running?

Sorry to say folk, but it seems to me that yast is the perfect tool for
a) installing (single/multiple
b) upgrading
c) searching

and

d) resolve dependencies too!

The only problem is that it’s available only on SuSE/OpenSuSE.

Anyway, when I was Slackwaring I usually find very easy to:

search google
download
compile

But it’s not for the newbie.

Best regards.
