Bug Description

PackageKit-based tools, such as pkcon and pk-update-icon, do not respect Ubuntu phased updates. As far as I can tell, they do not provide a way to access or react to the Phased-Update-Percentage field in an apt package index at all.

The result is that utilities based on PackageKit disagree with Ubuntu's native tools about what packages are ready for update.
