I've tested it on both F21 (PackageKit-1.0.6-1.fc21.x86_64) and F22
(PackageKit-1.0.8-2.fc22.x86_64). It is running in Qubes VM, so no real
desktop environment is running there.
The proxy is tinyproxy, but according to logs (and tcpdump) packagekit
doesn't even try to connect to it. The address is in form
"http://10.137.255.254:8082".
