[packagekit] ALPM Backend

[Jonathan Conder]

Most of the errors will be caused by things having the wrong name. The
commit I mentioned was done by a script which changed a lot of the
names to the correct ones, but it also changed a few things to the
wrong name. You can use it as a list of things which need changing,
but I'd suggest leaving the variable names as they were before; only
change the type names and function names.
