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.
