It kind of sounds like you may be waiting too long to reboot. If you download updates in the morning, apply the offline update in the next morning, and then have updates shortly after your computer turns on, you probably are avoiding the issue by rebooting into a new set of updates that need to be applied. This will only "fail" if you have a completely patched system when KDE does its initial update check after boot. > Non-technical folks generally never manually install updates. I know several non-technical people that understand they need to install updates and do so when notified (especially about security updates). In fact they prefer Linux in no small part because they can choose when to install those updates; they still need to be aware that there are updates though. > For such people, a trusted friend or family member should probably turn on > auto-updates. I would also expect that auto-updates may not work ... if the notification system isn't triggering for the user, I don't know how the user would know to reboot to install their automatic updates (assuming they even get installed in the first place). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
