Richard,
after reading the packagekitd -- verbose output
I can see two problems:

TI:02:45:42     FI:pk-transaction.c     FN:pk_transaction_set_hints,4643         
                                                                                
                
 - SetHints method called: 
locale=LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_MESSAGES=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_NAME=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_ADDRESS=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_TELEPHONE=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_MEASUREMENT=pt_BR.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=pt_BR.UTF-8,
 background=false, interactive=true    


At least in 0.5.x versions locale=pt_BR.UTF-8 was a correct value. Which is what 
KPackageKit passes to aptcc.

          
But the problem imo (late at nite) is here, if I set filter installed I get 
unknown,
if I set available I get unknown, with KPackageKit I get "none" when no filter 
is set.
Is there already a fix that we can use to patch it?

TI:02:45:42     FI:pk-transaction.c     FN:pk_transaction_search_groups,4398
  - SearchGroups method called: unknown, games  


BTW gpk version is 2.29.2

Best. ________________________________
