Description (last modified by dmik)

There are #261 and #262 which should make RPM forbid any package install/update/remove operation if an application restart or a system reboot is pending. We should also add a nice GUI widget (e.g. the one in XCenter) that will remind the user to close the required applications or to reboot in some reasonable intervals if it's not done immediately when executing the respective YUM or RPM command that caused such a pending state.

Note that this GUI widget should be RPM frontend agnostic. I.e. it should work after both using YUM from the command line or ANPM or any other RPM frontend. That said, YUM or ANPM should of course provide their own UI for performing the requested action immediately, but if the user refuses and closes YUM/ANPM before performing it, this GUI widget should kick in.

in a perfect world we would do that. ANPM has some sort of this request included since some versions. so it makes no sense to have this open as well.
