        an installation this attribute contains a tuple of the path to the
        current and the new temporary configuration file.

        The :meth:`resolve_config_file_conflict()` can be used to
        resolve the conflict and continue the processing of the
        transaction.

    .. attribute:: dependencies

        List of dependencies lists in the following order: packages to
        install, to re-install, to remove, to purge, to upgrade,
        to downgrade and to keep.

        You have to call :meth:`simulate()` to calculate the
        dependencies before the transaction will be executed.

    .. attribute:: download

        The number of Bytes which have to be downloaed.

        You have to call :meth:`simulate()` to calculate the
        download size before the transaction will be executed.

    .. attribute:: error

        corresponding :exc:`errors.TransactionFailed` instance.

        underlying error code, e.g.
        :data:`enums.ERROR_PACKAGE_DOWNLOAD_FAILED`.

    .. attribute:: error_details

        In the case of a failed transaction this attribute contains a
        detailed error message in the language of the transaction.

    .. attribute:: exit

    .. attribute:: http_proxy

        The URI to the http proxy server which should be used only for this
        transaction, e.g. "http://proxy:8080". It is recommended to set
        the system wide proxy server instead of setting this attribute
        for every transaction.

        See :meth:`set_http_proxy()`.

    .. attribute:: meta_data

        Dictionary of optional meta data which can be set by client
        applications. See :meth:`set_meta_data()`.

    .. attribute:: packages

        If the transaction is currently paused, e.g. it is required to
        insert a medium to install from.

    .. attribute:: progress

        An integer ranging from 0 to 101 to describe the progress of the
        transaction.

        .. note:: A value of 101 indicates that there cannot be made any
                  assumptions on the progress of the transaction.

    .. attribute:: remove_obsoleted_depends

        If dependencies which have been required by a removed package only
        should be removed, too.

    .. attribute:: required_medium

        If a medium should be inserted to continue the fetch phase of a
        transaction, this attribute contains a tuple of the device path of
        of the drive which should be used and secondly of the name of the
        medium.

        The :func:`provide_medium()` method should be used to notify aptdaemon
        about an inserted medium and to continue processing the transaction.

    .. attribute:: role

        The kind of action which is performed by the transaction, e.g.
        :data:`enums.ROLE_UPGRADE_SYSTEM`.

    .. attribute:: space

        The required disk space in Bytes. Will be negative if space is
        freed.

        You have to call :meth:`simulate()` to calculate the
        download size before the transaction will be executed.

    .. attribute:: status

        The enum of the current status, e.g.
        :data:`enums.STATUS_DOWNLOADING`.

    .. attribute:: status_details

        A string describing the current status of the transaction.

        The unique identifier of the transaction. It is also the D-Bus path
        of the corresponding transaction object.

    .. attribute:: term_attached

        If the the package manager can be controlled using the controlling
        terminal specified by :func:`set_terminal()`.

    .. attribute:: unauthenticated

        List of packages which are going to be installed but are not
        downloaded from an authenticated repository.

        You have to call :meth:`simulate()` to calculate the
        dependencies before the transaction will be executed.
