Package: packagekit
Version: 0.7.6-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I noticed that /var/lib/PackageKit/transactions.db is readable by anyone:

 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9216 2014-01-08 08:19 
/var/lib/PackageKit/transactions.db

This is in contrast to normal logfiles, like

 -rw-r-----  1 root        adm        172652 2014-02-03 17:55 auth.log

which are only readable by group adm (and root, of course).

The contents of transactions.db might contain somewhat sensible
information (basically logging), thus I would suggest to change the
permissions to the same as for logfiles.
