packagekit-d

A binding to the internals of PackageKit - allowing you to create new backends in the D programming language.

This has been created to enable encapsulation of the eopkg and moss package managers with graphical Linux applications.

Integration of packagekit-d

Your main project should set the following in dub.json:

	"targetType": "dynamicLibrary"
	"dflags-ldc": [
		"--checkaction=C",
		"--fvisibility=hidden",
		"-L-Wl,--version-script=symbols.ver"
	],
	"targetName": "pk_backend_$BACKEND_NAME"

Copy the symbols.ver linker script into your project root.

In your main library .d file, you must implement the runtime hookup by providing an implementation of this method:

export extern (C) Plugin packagekit_d_plugin_create()
{
	// return new MyPlugin();
}

You will need to derive from the packagekit.plugin abstract class.
