packagekit (0.7.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release: 0.7.0
    - This is the first release of the unstable 0.7.x series.
    - This code removes a lot of deprecated code and compatibility shims
       compared to the previous branch.
    - Highlights of this release is the new transaction plugin interface
       that allows external projects to add modules for interfacing with
       PackageKit. This allows projects such as Listaller to interface with
       PackageKit to install self contained software blobs.
       See http://listaller.tenstral.net/ for more information.
    - The daemon code is now using GDBus rather than dbus-glib, but the
       libpackagekit-glib library is still using the latter. It'll be
       converted hopefully in time for 0.7.1.
    - The changelog of this release is very long. You can look at the
      NEWS file in the release tarball if you want more information.
  * Remove the old apt backend, please use aptcc instead (which works
     much better)
  * Fix FTBFS on hurd-i386 (Closes: #645553)
  * Fix Python package dependencies
