[root at canyon ~]# locate gpk-application
/home/share/applications/gpk-application.desktop
/home/share/gnome-packagekit/gpk-application.glade
/usr/bin/gpk-application
[root at canyon ~]# rpm -qf /usr/bin/gpk-application
gnome-packagekit-0.1.12-12.20080430.fc9.i386
Looks like gnome-packagekit to me.
