[packagekit] Conflicting File in kpackgekit and gnome-packagekit

[Thomas Goettlicher]

I found out that kpackagekit and gnome-packagekit cannot be installed at the 
same system due to a conflicting file.

The file '/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.PackageKit.service' 
contains:
  Exec=/usr/bin/gpk-dbus-service
respectively:
  Exec=/usr/lib64/kde4/libexec/kpackagekitsmarticon

My proposal to solve this issue is to write a script similar to 'xdg-su' that 
chooses the binary that fits to the desktop environment. Remove 
'org.freedesktop.PackageKit.service' from kpackagekit and gnome-packagekit and 
put it to Packagekit.

Do you think that's possible or is there a better solution? 

Thanks
Thomas
