Is this fixed in the current release?
Comment 5 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-08-26 07:16:48 CEST 
What about trying if the org.freedesktop.PackageKit name has an owner?
Comment 6 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-08-26 10:50:00 CEST 
Probably not a good idea (yet) since the dbus interface does not support spawning a graphical interface and gnome-packagekit has no command line interface to open a windows with search arguments.
