Well, the first two of those packages are already ported in the
upstream versions, and I know for a fact the GPK one would be very
easy to backport to pretty much any version. git cherry-pick is your
friend :-)

As a general rule, the following substitutions are what you need:

DKP -> UP
Dkp -> Up
dkp_%foo(foo, bar) -> up_%foo_sync(foo, cancellable [or NULL], bar)

The API change is pretty much just a rename, so it should only take
you a few minutes to port an application. Grab me on IRC or email if
you get stuck and I'll do my best to help.
