Thanks for that. I found what looks like a fix for it upstream, and also noticed quite a lot of other bugfix commits ahead of the current Fedora build, so I've backported a bunch of those and am running a new PackageKit build now: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=29813351 once that's done I'll submit an update. Please give that updated PackageKit a shot and see if it behaves better. Thanks!
