Last night, after waiting a few days so the corrected dbus package could
get pushed to the mirrors, I followed Paul Frields instructions for
updating and ran a 'yum update' by hand in a terminal window. I got 160
updates all of which installed flawlessly. After installing, and again
per Frields' instructions, I rebooted my system and all was well.

I was luckier than some people because I became aware of the untested
dbus update early on and simply waited to update until the problem could
be fixed and the fixed software pushed to the mirrors. So I had a
working PackageKit all this time.
