Thank you for the update. It starts to be interesting and useful :) Just some comments : - software-center is beginning to move to packagekit backend, instead of the aptdaemon one. You should probably have a look at it if you want to to do more complex operations with the package manager. Fortunately, the concepts of aptdaemon and packagekit are the same, it should not block your UI or the way your software-center behave. - 1 feature that IMO a software-center must have, is the ability to show only "real" applications, not the list of all packages. As far as I know, it's not implemented in packagekit yet. 1 solution, is to parse the directory /usr/share/app-install/desktop/, which contain all the applications on Ubuntu repository (each .desktop file represent 1 application). Also, you will need at some point a proper build system, translation support etc .. but it can be added later.
