+    <p>
+      PackageKit allows performing simple software management tasks over a DBus interface e.g. refreshing the cache,
+      updating, installing and removing software packages or searching for multimedia codecs and file handlers.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The work is done by backends which make use of the package manager shipped by the corresponding distribution.
+      The main benefits are:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+      <li>unified interface on several distributions</li>
+      <li>fine grained privileges by using PolicyKit</li>
+      <li>independence from a running desktop session during processing</li>
+    </ul>
