The fix for gnome bug #601246 seems to have broken the newest filter. With PackageKit 0.5.4-0.1.20091029git.fc12, the situation was as follows:

$ LANG=C pkcon search name openal-soft-devel
Searching by name             [=========================]         
Starting                      [=========================]         
Querying                      [=========================]         
Installed   	openal-soft-devel-1.10.622-3.3793919892e6d61e5fec3abeaaeebc3f2332be13git.fc12.x86_64	Development files for openal-soft

Now (PackageKit 0.5.5-1.fc12), while available i686 version is shown, it is also accompanied by older releases of x86_64 version:

$ LANG=C pkcon search name openal-soft-devel
Searching by name             [=========================]         
Starting                      [=========================]         
Querying                      [=========================]

Available   	openal-soft-devel-1.9.563-1.d6e439244ae00a1750f0dc8b249f47efb4967a23git.fc12.x86_64	Development files for openal-soft

This is probably right, since every single package available in repositories is listed. On the other hand, the newest filter does not do its job right. It takes away the older versions of packages of the same installed/available state, but on the other hand if an older version of an installed package is still available in the repositories, it will still get listed:

$ LANG=C pkcon search name --filter newest openal-soft-devel
Searching by name             [=========================]         
Starting                      [=========================]

Same thing happens in gnome-packagekit (see attachments).

Are there any plans for this issue? It still happens in Fedora 14 prerelease:

[julas@laughlin ~]$ LANG=C pkcon search name gnome-chemistry-utils

[julas@laughlin ~]$ rpm -q PackageKit

[julas@laughlin ~]$ 

As you can see above, gnome-chemistry-utils-0.12.2-4.fc14.i686 is listed even though a newer gnome-chemistry-utils-0.12.3-1.fc14.i686 is installed.

We moved the upstream bugtracker to GitHub a long time ago. If this issue still affects you please re-create the issue here: https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit/issues
 
Sorry for the impersonal message, and fingers crossed your issue no longer happens. Thanks.
