[Bug 1860985] Re: packagekitd using 100% CPU

[Owen]

The PPA was deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/webdesigner/deb/
stable main

The linked ticket does sound like the issue, but my other concern is
despite setting the "Automatically check for updates" to "Never" is
Software and Updates the system continues to look for update at quite a
high frequency and even when packagekitd is "idle" it still uses 20% CPU

  my trust level is too low "only_trusted:0"
