Hello all,

I've upgrade my netbook from F14 to F15.
The netbook is running XFCE 4.8.
Previously, in F14, gpk-update-icon was responsible for display an alert
when updates are available.
As far as I can see, gpk-update-icon is no longer available in
gnome-packagekit and according to yum it's no longer available (yum
whatprovides */gpk-update-icon returns nothing)

The irony is that according to Fedora 15 deployment guide (section 5.3,
PackageKit architecture), gpk-update-icon is still a part of Fedora.

What am I missing?
