Looks like a good idea - would make it more useful for the users than a
message box.

Title:
  Automatic installation of third party dependencies

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I was just playing around with packgekit api and gdbus, and come with
  something i find very simple and convenient in our way to manage third
  party applications.

  Just check the video attached.

  I think we could use that with inkscape but also blender, freior-
  effects, missings codecs, ... would be very usefull and user friendly
  !

  Works great in fedora 16, didn't test with ubuntu (packagekit is in
  universe repo, don't know if it's a problem ?)

  It is only about 10 lines of codes (and so we can remove lots of
  messagebox around the code), but for sure needs some improvement (like
  try catch, autolaunch of app when installed, transient windows, ...)

  Let me know what you think !

  Thanks !
