It's not the same bug. You're mixing up at least 3 separate bugs:
* the bug you're seeing, where basesystem gets removed by remove-with-leaves
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502399 - remove-with-leaves
confuses PackageKit, causing a Python backtrace - fixed in PackageKit 0.4.8
by blacklisting the plugin
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=503989 - Kpackagekit crashes
after packagekit update - we simply need a new kpackagekit (0.4.1) to go
together with the PackageKit 0.4.8 update, we're working on this right now

In this particular case, I wouldn't be opposed to that, the plugin is just
broken by design.

Only within that package. I think PackageKit is simply not designed to allow
yum plugins to add additional packages to remove.
