It is working, but the default notification interval has been changed
to "weekly". Unless it's for security updates or so. And without proper
documentation about how exactly the various configuration values are
used, it doesn't become clear when it's working. For example, for me
the graphical configuration dialog said "hourly", but it doesn't let one
change the notification interval. I've changed several of the values
at the command-line after getting the list with

$ gsettings list-keys org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.updates
[...]

The "Missing PackageKit notification in GNOME Shell" thread on test list
(May 25) also gives a bit of background.
