system-config-printer-gnome depends on old version of packagekit

[shemgp]

I tried to print and the printer had an error, I wanted to check out if the printer driver was working and the UI was not there. Turns out system-config-printer-gnome was not installed and installing it removes gnome-software. I think it's because system-config-printer-gnome depends on packagekit 0.8.17 instead of the 1.0.11 which gnome-software requires.

I can install system-config-printer-gnome now and modify the printer's configuration (even without the package).
