@Sebastian: Great news! (although I'd still prefer Ubuntu using PackageKit/Aptcc ^^)
While looking at Ubuntu, I just found something else: You do realize that you broke everything depending on QPK by merging packagekit-qt? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit-qt
It won't even build from source w/o a PackageKit from the 0.8.x series ;-)
(so you'd notice that during an archive rebuild, but binaries have already been taken over)
Cheers,
    Matthias

Title:
  Update to 0.8.x

Status in “packagekit” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Update to version 0.8.1.  We need to investigate if this should be
  done in Quantal, the notes in NEWS are:

  Notes:
   - We've broken a lot of API in this release. A LOT. If you're using the
     systemd D-Bus interface of PackageKit, then it's likely you'll have
     to spend a few minutes converting to the new interfaces.
     If you use the packagekit-glib or packagekit-qt bindings they'll
     be the odd change too, but nothing quite as drastic.
   - Both the client libraries broke ABI, so there's a soname bump.
   - Needless to say, it's probably not a good idea to push all this new
     and broken code into your super-stable paid-for-support distro.
   - If anyone has questions about porting, grab one of us developers on
     the PackageKit mailing list.
