The problem is that PackageKit requires PolicyKit. We'd have to start the
GNOME PolicyKit authentication agent if we can't provide our own (and just
installing it is no longer enough because it doesn't use D-Bus activation
anymore, it needs to be autostarted in the desktop session). That or have a
second version of PackageKit built against PolicyKit 0.9, but I think
rhughes won't like that idea.

IMO dropping PolicyKit support is not an issue. We need to get FESCO to
understand that KDE is not PolicyKit1 ready and in the event that we can't get
it there by F12 that this feature will need to be bumped to F13. They need to
realize that a feature that effects multiple desktops cannot be imposed
unilaterally.
I now see what Rex means, the KDE-SiG needs a voice in FESCO.
