At first aptdaemon needs to support the 0.8 framework before we will see
a later version of PackageKit in Ubuntu. But I already started on
porting the interface.

Furthermore we have to see how fast the new API gets used by the clients
(e.g. in GNOME). That should only happen if most of the backends have
been ported to 0.8.
