On a side note it'd be nice if pk just called out to dnf so that they have a

Or at least wrote information to a common database so that all the
information is synchronized[0].

Note that with hawkey now merged into libhif, DNF will be using
libhif, which makes it even more silly that PackageKit-Hif and DNF
still don't keep each other in sync.

Yes, the lack of PK and DNF integration is a bigger problem than some
of DNF's peculiarities, and leads to very poor user experiences. For
example when PK tells you there are updates and you apply them via DNF
on the command-line, then tell PK to "Install Updates" it tells you
there is an internal system error and to contact your system
administrator. "Already updated" should not be an "internal system
error"!

And the fact that /var/log/dnf.rpm.log doesn't show updates done by PK
is just annoying. Isn't there a single log file I can look at to see
what was updated, and when?
