The kde4 update applet fails to install the first available updates. First it failed to install the package kit update, then once this was manually installed with the HAL update the next set of updates failed to install also.

The applet would display multiple notifications that new updates were available, then it would add duplicate items to the list of available updates. So for example I had entries for each of the fluendo update, flash update etc. These had to be manually installed with YOU also.

Please attach /var/log/PackageKit and the exact error (dependency failure?)

I should add a couple of things that may be relevant to this issue.

When trying to install the packageKit and HAL updates i received an error dialogue from the updater applet, unfortunately i did not think to screenshot it. The message was similar to "this user has insufficient privileges to perform this operation - packageKit/blah blah"

This was the very first thing I tried to do after installation. When i could not apply the updates via the updater applet I tried to install them via YOU but the main YAST2 interface would not open/start. I had to relog to allow yast2 to start in graphic mode ( ncurses mode worked ok )
