Hi, JFTR in case anyone else stumbles over this:

Matthias and me debugged the issue via IRC. It was caused by an update-appstream-index from the 0.1-1 package running in an endless loop (usually only runs for less than a minute), which was caused by the missing dependency on PolKit (which also fixed http://bugs.debian.org/703513),so this is already partially fixed by the 0.2.0-2 upload and Matthias knows about this issue. Killing the remaining update-appstream-index process manually solved the upgrade issue for me.
