Mhh... Anything is borked with the code. Not sure if packagekit, the
alpm backend (most likely...) or libalpm is to blame.

I have two scenarios where packagekit does silly things. This is tested with
gnome-packagekit.

* Installing a new package basically works. The dependencies are installed
  just fine, then the package is installed. After that the package ist
  erinstalled...

* Upgrading packages does not work. The outdated packages are shown,
  installing packages make packagekit work for some time, after that the same
  outdated packages are shown again. Digging into the code it looks like
  pk_alpm_transaction_event_cb() receives integrity and keyring events, but I
  do not see ALPM_EVENT_PACKAGE_OPERATION_START.

Any hints about how to get things working correctly?
