I have enabled debugging of packagekit daemon. It is started every hour 
(I set up checking to hourly in kpackagekit) and quits about 5 minutes 
later. But there is no query for updates and therefore no hint that new 
updates are available.

Sadly I have not found any debugging setting for kpackagekit (are there 
any?). Any hints how to test any further?
