packagekit msgs from syslogd

Wed Dec 4 21:36:54 UTC 2013

How do we get rid of the subject msgs?  They spam an open gnome-terminal 
like:

Message from syslogd at P5K-EWIFI at Dec  4 16:33:46 ...
  PackageKit:get-updates transaction /4692_ccdcccba from uid 1000 
finished with success after 10490ms

Message from syslogd at P5K-EWIFI at Dec  4 16:33:46 ...
  PackageKit:new update-packages transaction /4694_ddebccea scheduled 
from uid 1000
[kunkelc at P5K-EWIFI <21> ~]$

TIA
