Well interestingly I set the preferences to never check for updates or
major upgrades and to never install and yet it still does pop up so it
must still actually check for updates - I know that I could uninstall
gnome packagekit altogether but it is a bit disconcerting that it
appears to still check for updates when you asked it not to!
