If you pull now, you can actually see it working:

[hughsie at hughsie-laptop src]$ sudo ./run-pk.sh yum2
...
TI:20:32:31     TH:0x9db23f0    FI:pk-backend.c FN:pk_backend_set_name,141
 - Trying to load : yum2

[hughsie at hughsie-laptop src]$ pkcon search name gnome-power
installed    gnome-power-manager  i386    2.21.2-1.101.20080107svn.fc8.hughsie installed GNOME Power Manager
available    gnome-power-manager  i386    2.20.0-6.fc8    fedora       GNOME Power Manager
search-name runtime was 0.6 seconds

It's pretty crashy right now, and also tons of stuff isn't working. It's
also not yet async, but we can work on that in a minute. But basically
it works enough for us to play with it.

Richard.
