Bug Description
This is a problem I'm having with the recently updated packagekit 0.3.3 on intrepid:
Every time I attempt something, such as installing a package, updating the system or what have you, packagekit says "an internal system error has occured" and that "The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork!". Unfortunately, I have no clue how to fork, which results in nothing getting installed or updated.
Please, tell me where to look for additional information about this.
Screenshot attached.

Does the command line tool pkcon work? E.g. "pkcon get-details xterm"
What kind of machine are you using? Is it a modern system?
