In KPackageKit I can't uncheck the 'Proposed updates' or the
'Unsupported updates' boxes in the 'Kubuntu updates' section of the
'Updates' tab of the 'Software Sources' window (brought up by clicking
on the 'Edit Origins' button in the 'Settings' tab of 'KPackageKit').

A workaround is to use the gtk version of software-properties. On the
same screen, the boxes CAN be unchecked, and the package can then be
uninstalled.

I'm using 64-bit Kubuntu 11.04 if that helps, though I think the bug
report should include those details.
