[packagekit] PackageKit 1.0.0 released!

Version 1.0.0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Released: 2014-09-12 Notes: - After over 7 years, 99 tarball releases and 11697 commits from 284 people we've finally released the first stable version. Woohoo! - I wanted to sent out a heart-felt thank you to all the people who have contributed to the success of this project. I couldn't have done it on my own and quite a few people were more important than they realize. - Now, onto more practical aspects. These are the big changes for this release: * The offline update functionality has moved to a proper D-Bus interface and the pkexec helpers have been removed. Offline updates is an important feature that no longer deserves to be bolted-on. All the existing users have been ported to the new interface, but you need 3.13.92 if you're running GNOME from unstable or jhbuild. * No more plugins. Both in-tree and out-of-tree plugins were the biggest source of crashes, and with the systemd offline updates merged into the core daemon they are just not reuired anymore. All affected projects have been notified. * No more conary, opkg, smart or yum plugins. These have been unmaintained and broken for over two years, so time to give them the heave-ho. * The alpm, aptcc, hif and zypp plugins have had lots of love, and are up to date with the latest features and working well.
