Can't install software from file manager or web browser when a Pamac window is open

[gabrc52]

If a Pamac window is open and open a .pkg.tar.xz file an alert saying "Pamac is already running" appears.

I have to close the Pamac window in order to be able to install a downloaded package.

It is wanted that way. You can also do that within the open window of pamac. The option is called install local package.

What about sending the .pkg.tar.xz file path over dbus to the open window? It would be simpler than opening a filechooser window, and selecting the file.
