Forgot to add - the additional wrinkle here is that currently we only
really do autoqa tests on yum, and this issue is *only* in PackageKit.
We could probably add a test using pkcon, that wouldn't be too hard, I
guess. Testing the actual graphical PK interface automatically is much
harder (automatic GUI testing is basically a gigantic asspain).
