Ok so i the reason it wasnt finding anything is because Packagekit wasnt
set to use Smart in /etc/PackageKit/PackageKit.conf.
This should really be documented in the FAQ or something. I only picked
up on this after researching in Google and it popped from a old openSUSE
or Mandriva forum thread.
I think this bug can be closed now as it now seems to be a smartpm
problem and therefore the duplicate of this remain open.
