[packagekit] make pkgenpack work

[Saurabh Sharma]

Hi List,

Just read through 'http://tinyurl.com/m8sr8k' and felt like trying out
pkgenpack.
I tried out by typing multiple ways in 
# pkgenpack --output=/home/sawrub/ --package=LXDE
but the command failed with following message always.
Failed to open package list.: '/var/lib/PackageKit/system.package-list' 

Tried to locate the file under /var/lib/PackageKit/ manually,but in
vain. It only had desktop-files.db and transactions.db.
Do i need to create the file manually, but i fear as it was not done in any guide
online.

Please help me out in using this utility.

I'm using F11 and following is the sate of PackageKit.

[root at mybox ~]# yum list PackageKit*
