There is Software Updater plugin in system tray and Software Management (Apper). Both of them come pre-enabled in Fedora 20 KDE.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately, both the SoftwareUpdater and Apper seem to be interfaces to PackageKit, which I have removed as there seems no way of stopping its endless messages, which I find annoying.

Agreed.
There is nothing better than command line. Apper would start with 10% then go 90% and then it would fail and not show any error. I stick to terminal.
Yumex is also a lightweight alternative.
There is Yumex, which is recommended some times.

There are Apper and PackageKit-Qt; but those aren't that good as Yumex. It is written in Gtk2, but it's worth it to use it.
