appears to be related to use of zif (not yum) backend, adjusting summary.
Yes - I went on a jag and installed *all* of the PackageKit plugins a few days ago. I removed PackageKit-zif.x86_64 after reading #11 and PackageKit appears to be functional now.
In F20 and rawhide the zif backend has been replaced by hawkey.
