Public bug reported:
While I personally detest kpackagekit and have continued using Adept on
Karmic Koala, there seems to be no way around it because every now and
then a KPackageKit message pops up telling me there are available
updates.
Sometimes I then using adept or 'apt-get upgrade' to install the
upgrades, but today I gave in and clicked the 'Update now' button in
KPackageKit. And wham, it disappeared out of the system tray, doing
nothing. I ended up still installing the updates manually. This is not
the first time this happens, but somehow I cannot seem to be able to get
apport to collect any data about the crash. If I do, I'll try to attach
it.
Another annoyance is that when installing updates with kpackagekit it
needs administrative privileges, I get a GTK popup screen asking for my
password instead of the nice kdesudo screen. This doesn't seem right,
but might be a different issue.
