After the fresh F11 installation, I've thought packagekit is a most user friendly package manager front-end. But after updates I've noticed some usability regressions. 1) update-icon stopped to show transactions progress. I'll be glad to /apps/gnome-packagekit/update-icon/watch_active_transactions enabled by default again. 2) gpk-application starts in maximized window and does not store window size.

Why do you think you need to interact with the icon for active transactions? > 2) gpk-application starts in maximized window and does not store window size. It should only do that if the screen size is very small -- what screen dimensions do you have?

By the same reason why ./configure display message for each test :) Ok, gpk show progress on install, update, etc... so there is no reason to show transaction progress. But when updates available, gpk-update-icon provides drop-down menu with option "Install updates" which performs update silently. I'm not sure about current version, but previous version had described behavior. > It should only do that if the screen size is very small -- what screen > dimensions do you have? > 1280 x 800

Yes, we're thinking about nuking that option altogether, and just providing a link to the update viewer. > > It should only do that if the screen size is very small -- what screen > > dimensions do you have? > > > 1280 x 800 Right, then it's by design, as your height is very small.
