You can:
Remove/disable package kit.
Do manual updates when you feel like it.
Reboot when you want to.

That's what I do.  The last thing I want is several minutes of waiting
around for the computer to shutdown or startup when I don't want to be
waiting around.  I'll do updates when I've got free time to waste.


Which is what I (the OP) asked about, and have now done. I don't use the Gnome software application for anything, so have disabled its underlying packagekit.

It's irrelevant now for me, but I will note that this runaway CPU-usage thing has just come up in the past week or 10 days, so wonder if something has changed in packagekit?

And, FWIW, I fought and lost my first UNIX/Windows battle 30 years ago. sorry to have crossed into this No Man's Land once again...
