Bug#665290: Not _trying_ to do Distro upgrades

	This message does not coincide with me trying to use 
packagekit to do distribution or any other upgrades, but rather
coincodes with the following spam pair in my syslog (on three different
machines, mind you):

dbus[1670]: [system] Activating service
name='org.freedesktop.PackageKit' (using servicehelper)
dbus[1670]: [system] Successfully activated service
'org.freedesktop.PackageKit'

They '.xsession-errors' messages and '/var/log/messages' pair
above both happened at 19:19.  Finally some cause and effect has been
established for the phantom packagekit activation
(see also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=665477).  
Feel free to merge #665477 with this one.

Once again, I use a mixture of aptitude and update-manager to perform
all package upgrades.  The daily cron job '/etc/cron.daily/apt' does 95%
of the updates (I do the odd command line update when a repository
change is made, which is rarely).  I do not intentionally try and use
packagekit at all.
