There will probably be a GUI for it, called an "App store".

Windows Vista had a command-line package manager, although it was rather lame. It was a kludge to feed canned answers to installer prompts.

Windows has an app store already. I don't know if it works with the command-line tool, but if not, I'm sure they will be tied together eventually. Ubuntu has an app store as well.
