PackageKit provides support for many Linux PMs. Add a single adapter for PackageKit, and most all disastrous are covered.

PackageKit seems nice at the first sight. However, after some research, I have found out that:

It wants to be completely silent when doing its tasks, and it seems that there is no chance of interrupting this process. At least for now, when critical things happen, a prompt might pop up.
You lose control of what the library is doing. At least for now, pacaptr simply launches subprocesses, and the commands are deliberately printed out when they are running.
