PackageKit has been a daemon from the start (and this has been a long-running major technological difference from yum). For precisely this reason, you wouldn't want logging out of your desktop to break updates in the middle. rpm-ostree is also a daemon, and what's notable here is unlike the dnf/PackageKit situation, you can't even use rpm -Uvh, so there is only one way to mutate the host system that is consistently using a daemon. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
