install discover + packagekit-qt5, remove gnome-software #17

Closed star-buck closed 6 years ago

Since discover is also based on packagekit like gnome-software, does it trigger pacman/alpm hooks? The packagekit alpm backend had issues with this leaving an non-boot-able system after kernel updates, it didn't trigger mkinitcpio as it should. This also caused issues with other packages as well.

The alpm backend is what packagekit uses to install packages in Arch/Manjaro, it's part of packagekit itself. If it's working for you as it should then cool. I was unsure as there has been issues with it in the past, so I quit using anything that used packagekit. Besides, these apps do not update AUR applications like Octopi and/or Pamac do.
