Please sync packagekit 0.7.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
  * Merge with Debian, remaining Ubuntu changes:
  * debian/control:
    - Recommend packagekit-system-interface instead of
      python-aptdaemon.pkcompat: we care about the dbus interface, now provided
      by the python3 package, not the python module.
    - Have the libraries recommend python-aptdaemon.pkcompat over packagekit as
      we don't want the latter to be installed by default.

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:

All Ubuntu changes are in the Debian package for a long time, the last Ubuntu merge was
useless, as it re-added stuff which was already there. Simply dropping the Ubuntu delta
should be okay here.
