Changelog

Version: 1.3.4-3ubuntu1.1 2026-06-23 04:07:24 UTC

  packagekit (1.3.4-3ubuntu1.1) resolute; urgency=medium

  * d/p: Honour allow_deps=false when removing packages.
    The PackageKit API allows restricting a RemovePackages transaction to
    prevent removing any dependent packages, but the APT backend was not
    honouring it.
    This could have lead to the accidental removal of system packages when
    trying to uninstall applications from simple PackageKit frontends.
    (LP: #2148474)
