For reasons unknown, any attempt to use the Software Update or Add/Remove Software tools since Dec 31st results in an 'Authenticate' dialog. The text is "The software is not from a trusted source. Do not update these packages unless you are sure it is safe to do so." Clicking on details gives the following: Action: org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-install-untrusted Vendor: The PackageKit Project Testing indicates this dialog occurs for *any* package, from all the default repositories. I do not know why Software Update wants a root password as no changes to the repository configuration have been changed.
The problem started after these were installed: PackageKit-yum-0.6.21-1.fc16.x86_64 PackageKit-0.6.21-1.fc16.x86_64 PackageKit-glib-0.6.21-1.fc16.x86_64 PackageKit-device-rebind-0.6.21-1.fc16.x86_64 PackageKit-yum-plugin-0.6.21-1.fc16.x86_64

Reproduced this by downgrading zsh to what's in F-16 GA, then attempting to update.

(In reply to comment #7) > Very sure, zsh was just the package I used as a guinea-pig here. OK. I read your comment wrong. Thanks for the quick fix. I'll give it some karma when I can.

Simply download the 32bit packages as well: PackageKit, PackageKit-glib
