<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">the reason this is still in MobileComponent is because it isn't quite "general purpose use" ready. the biggest issue is that it always assumes a Plasma/Generic type and can not load from anywhere other than the normal system install paths.
properties for type and install root would probably fix that. with those properties, the package should not be created on setting the name, but when there is at least both package name and type. this could be problematic as to avoid creating packages and metadata types repeatedly, it should probably be done in a delayed fashion e.g. with a timer that is started whenever the properties change. a concern there then is that filePath will not return anything until that happens, so that also may not be workable.
it may even make sense to create the package in the filePath methods?
Marco probably has though this through a lot more as well ..
also, a bool valid read-only property should be added.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">yes, the problem of it is that it can only access packages of generic type in the default system wide default directory.
now, it *may* make sense to make this more generic, *but* it may have quite serious counterindications:
imageine a plasmoid using that to access files belonging to a package of another plasmoid.... not sure i want to go there.</pre>

This adds bindings for Plasma::Package to the PlasmaCore plugin.
This class has moved and been renamed from plasma-mobile's
MobileComponents (Package -> PackageProxy, runtime-visible, it's just
PlasmaCore.Package).</pre>
