We use the update-manager for this, and therefore don't wan't the kpackagekitd daemon to start, which makes sense.

It looks that our patch to hide this kded desktop file doesn't work, so changing status, as this is a valid report

This bug was fixed in the package kpackagekit - 0.4-0ubuntu5

---------------
kpackagekit (0.4-0ubuntu5) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Fixed debian/rules:
    - We don't want to list the kpackagekit kded service as we
      don't use it
    - Fixes LP: #349442
  * Removed kubuntu_02_no_update_notifier.diff as useless
  * Fixed kubuntu_03_deb_preference.deb:
    - Renamed to kubuntu_02_deb_preference.deb.patch
    - Fixed debian/series so that the patch applies
