I just installed following packages from Wheezy using 'dpkg -i':
  libgdu0_3.0.2-3_amd64.deb             (same version also in Jessie)
  python-vte_0.28.2-5_amd64.deb         (same version also in Jessie)
  update-manager-core_0.200.5-2.1_all.deb
  update-manager-gnome_0.200.5-2.1_all.deb
  update-notifier_0.99.3debian11_amd64.deb
  update-notifier-common_0.99.3debian11_all.deb

Entered following in /etc/apt/preferences for pinning:

 Explanation: Wheezy packages for update-notification
 Package: update-notifier
 Pin: version 0.99.3debian11
 Pin-Priority: 1001

 Package: update-notifier-common
 Pin: version 0.99.3debian11
 Pin-Priority: 1001

and execute 'apt-cache gencaches' to update the cache.

 Then *purged* packagekit and all related stuff, keeping
 only "gir1.2-packagekitglib-1.0", "libpackagekit-glib2-16"

That frees some 14MB of space.

Reboot and uptdate-notification works fine as before.

It is sad to see how Gnome invades the whole system :-(
