From bug 439473 by Christian Boltz:
(In reply to comment #12 from Thomas Goettlicher)
Christian, does the package from home:lnussel:Factory/PolicyKit fix the problem?
At least kupdateapplet doesn't crash anymore (I really tested by rebooting this time ;-) The remaining part: kupdateapplet more or less hangs displaying "checking for updates" with the progressbar at "100%, finished" while it should probably display a "permission denied" message. Console output: # kupdateapplet, manually clicked "check for updates" Attempting to obtain authorization for org.freedesktop.packagekit.refresh-cache. polkit-grant-helper: given auth type (1 -> no) is bogus Failed to obtain authorization for org.freedesktop.packagekit.refresh-cache. Authentification error : : Attempting to obtain authorization for org.freedesktop.packagekit.refresh-cache. polkit-grant-helper: given auth type (1 -> no) is bogus Failed to obtain authorization for org.freedesktop.packagekit.refresh-cache. Authentification error : : Things that make me wonder in the messages above: - the "given auth type (...) is bogus" message - the empty "Authentification error" line -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The test if it actually works seems to need a re-login at least - I'll provide the test results tomorrow. Thanks.
Another question: why does this little update drop in kde4-kupdateapplet-zypp? kde4-kupdateapplet requires at least one plugin. kde4-kupdateapplet-zypp and kde4-kupdateapplet-packagekit provide such a plugin. I don't know why zypper doesn't choose kde4-kupdateapplet-packagekit but kde4-kupdateapplet-zypp. Could you please check whether kde4-kupdateapplet-packagekit-0.8.19 is installed?

So it looks like the applet handles "permission denied" correct now. Great. Thanks for testing.
I still wonder why there isn't a password dialog popping up, but that's probably another bug ;-) Perhaps a bug in PolicyKit or PolicyKit-kde.
