You want to try PackageKit in updates-testing. It's much never than 0.2.x. Also, you need to file bugs if you want something fixed. > But anyway, I have now reinstalled it.

That menu item is provided by gnome-packagekit, which depends on PackageKit. If I were you, I would enable updates-testing, and install PackageKit and gnome-packagekit and try it out again.

Sorry. Installing PackageKit and gnome-packagekit from updates-testing seems to have done it. Thanks for your help.
