There are gazillion package manager in the wild

PackageKit is a generic interface to the local package manager, used
by all the major distros and desktop environments. It's installed by
default on any normal desktop/laptop. So this is different from
hardcoding a call out to yum or apt

please when do so *silently* fall back to ignore it on systems where PackageKit is removed by intention, that's what frequently is done on machines of users deploy servers and their own workstations and operate exclusively with YUM or DNF

in short: don't make it another log-flood candidate
