So, it's like socket activated, except it occurs when something makes a D-Bus call to the daemon. It's currently used by dnfdragora (which has Qt, GTK+, and ncurses UIs) and yumex-dnf (which only has a GTK+ UI). There's no particular reason for it to be functionally separate from DNF itself. Well, except that it currently is... That said, the daemon's APIs are far less raw than DNF's own APIs, so it's much easier to build things on top of it. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
