Ubuntu indeed uses update-manager and not PackageKit and as Cosimo said
those bugs are tracked on launchpad and the product on the GNOME
Bugzilla is not being looked/used, I've talked to Michael Vogt
(update-manager maintainer) and he also agreed that the product at
Bugzilla should be closed as per the previous reasons, so yes please
close it, thanks.

Have a nice day,
