As root run the following command to identify PackageKit files ...
# rpm -qa |grep PackageKit
PackageKit-udev-helper-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
PackageKit-yum-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
PackageKit-glib-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
PackageKit-yum-plugin-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
PackageKit-0.3.9-4.fc10.i386
Create a directory and cd into this directiory and run the following command
# yumdownloader PackageKit-udev-helper
# yumdownloader PackageKit-yum
# yumdownloader PackageKit-glib
# yumdownloader PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin
# yumdownloader PackageKit-yum-plugin
# yumdownloader PackageKit
Next download the following file gnome-packagekit-0.3.11-3.fc10.i386.rpm from the following link ...
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/b...?buildID=72465
Next execute the following command ...
# rpm -Uvh PackageKit*rpm gnome-packagekit*rpm
This will update PackageKit without any unresolved dependencies.
Reboot and you should be back in business. These are the steps I followed and they worked for me. I hope they work for you.
