Why in Opensuse 11.4 there is kpackagekit for update, of default? Yast do not works for update?

Yast and/or zypper work well for updates. kpackagekit is part of KDE and that’s why it comes with the distribution. Using yast or zypper is preferred. You can even uninstall packagekit. This will uninstall kpackagekit as well, because it depends of packagekit.
if you dont know what to uninstall, go to yast ->software manager and type “packagekit” uninstall everything what’s listed there and in case you want do update use “zypper up repo-update”
You’ll find in another recent forum thread of mine that I discovered kpackageit aka suse update doesn’t update more than a select few things related to the OS.
Better is running the following which updates <everything> you have installed through any of your configured repos
$ zypper update
