Yes, there will still be split caches for these scopes. What changes
is that root user scope should share a cache and locking. The original
reason that PackageKit uses a different cache location is because
software centers aggressively refresh. Locking your CLI package
manager while PackageKit refreshes metadata was a bad experience in
the YUM days. We have always been able to use the regular cache if we
wanted to, but we didn't for this reason.
