Hi,
        I have recently upgraded from FC20  to FC21 using fedup - it was a 
pleasantly smooth upgrade......
However..... I do not appear to be being notified of any pending package 
updates (maybe there arent any? - doubtfull!)..
And so (using KDE) I am trying to run system-config-services to check 
packagekit. (although the command line systemctl  tells me packagekit.service 
is running).
When I attempt to run kde->administration->service-management I get no window.
When I run system-config-services from the command line I get:

Same thing if I run it under sudo.

Is this a dbus problem?
have I got some other problem with my system config?
Am I just being stupid?
Any clues?

Many Thanks
