Perhaps, if this can't be fixed in previous versions, it would be possible to downgrade to a previous version of Package Kit when it didn't require "apt to have a spawned backend" (final post on bug 17750).
So atleast then, other users won't download this version and be affected. Thanks, Matthew Millar -- packagekit says: The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272410 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
