Solution #1: Use PackageKit when it possible
Written by morswin55-11 the 15 Sep 09 at 10:34.
PackageKit introduce common naming scheme, so ex. Wesnoth will have the same name in each distribution on PackageKit. 0 install should first look for dependency in PackageKit. If PackageKit couldn't satisfy our package, we will install it by 0 install. Also, if user don't prompt root password, we will install dependency by 0 install.
