Description of problem: I get constantly an update error message in Plasma 5 with the widget plasma-pk-updates. Update Error The task was forcibly cancelled. The task was cancelled successfully and no packages were changed. The backend did not exit cleanly. N.B. I got this message before, but updates were committed partially or fully, though I did not notice any system breakages. Since last week there were no packages committed at all. Possibly there is a version mismatch.

Can you try to see if packagekit-1.1.6-2 and plasma-pk-update-0.3.1 solve your problem? I pushed them to address crashes and failures regarding metadata refresh during updates.
Yes, it works now as expected. I will test further updates using plasma-pk-updates and packagekit. Thank you, Ulrich
