I reported this against Trusty LTS and the Fix would mean back-porting or otherwise introducing 0.8.17 over 0.8.12, probably not going to happen.
So that the unnecessary, wrongly named and wrongly located file might be removed (though I suppose anyone who cares can actually do so themselves), a patch is needed against the packaging of PackageKit in Trusty.
I can't see a way to file a bug against a particular release's packaging of a package, so I've linked this to the Trusty branches with a suggested distribution patch for /contrib/pm-utils/Makefile.am that should omit the redundant file and remove it if present.
Thanks Matthias, Amr.
