how to make packagekit use the same dnf metadata ?
packagekit wastes my bandwidth by downloading separate metadata files I made a video to explain it better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLckO...
metadata is the files that contain information about repositories. as you can see in the video I posted , the problem is that metadata files are downloaded twice.. one for dnf and one for packagekit. I have limited and slow internet connection . the repositories metadata is about 70 megabytes which is very pain full to download. the problem is that dnf and packagekit(gnome software-center) each one have I'ts own metadata , so the same metadata files are duplicated two times in two places /var/cache/PackageKit/ and /var/cache/dnf/ which wastes my internet bandwidth
in ubuntu gnome software center uses the same apt metadata , so I think the problem from fedora.
fedora 23 , gnome-software 3.18.3-1
Impossible, They are differents projects... Packagekit works in many distributions linux; while dnf only works in Fedora, RedHat,Centos and derivates..
