Interesting that nobody had a fix for the (humorously named) PackageKit-command-not-found issue, i.e., all respondents were just happy trashing it. I work on new computers a lot and don't always keep track of what packages I install, so (although I agree it's weird and not a very unixy/linuxy way to do things) I actually wouldn't mind if it ever worked again! In the meantime, I have also trashed it. Best, Matt
