Public bug reported:

Im using Ubuntu 64 9.10 Karmic and installed Packagekit(0.4.8) from repos and 
also installed Packagekit-backend-smart.
I removed the apt backend to PK to test PK with Smart but now im unable to use 
it. Add/Remove and Update Manager just does nothing. Software Sources is also 
unusable and has a checkbox which cannot be checked and next to it, it says 
"Getting Software Source list not support by backend".

So it seems this somehow fails to see Ubuntu's repos.

If i type 'smart channel --show' in terminal i receive this output:

:~$ smart channel --show

So im leaning toward this issue being a packagekit-backend-smart one. ??
