I have a similar problem after yum-upgrading from F9 to rawhide.   
PackageKit fails periodically, complaining  
'org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-refresh no', but if I try to  
edit the corresponding implicit authorizations, the 'Modify' button stays  
insensitive, so I have no way to implement the change.
