Well, I've not yet seen gnome-packagekit, but from my experiences
with pirut, it would be quite a challenge to make it a worse
POS than pirut :-).

As practically the first app that anyone sees following a fresh install,
pirut is a terrible thing to get as a first impression of the GUI
on a new release. (Just as one example I can't recall any time that
the progress bars worked on the version that made it into the DVDs
for a new release - it just looks froze up for an hour, then says "done!).

At the risk of fanning partisan flames, I have to say the updater
on ubuntu gives a much better first impression.
