Bug ID: 390840
Summary: Discover has a problem when packagekitd is stopped
Product: Discover
Version: 5.12.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: PackageKit
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: larr...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
When updating the packages, sometimes Discover shows in its output:
PackageKit stopped running!
and the "Checking for updates..." (Looking for updates) messages are kept on
discover forever, as if the connection with packagekitd was lost.
After some debugging, it seems packagekitd can be configured to end
automatically after some idle time (Just set ShutdownTimeout=15 under [Daemon]
in /etc/PackageKit/PackageKit.conf), and that confuses Discover.
Note that openSUSE did install a default of ShutdownTimeout=15 in the past, so
old systems may have that config option. This was done because of a bug in
libzypp (https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=899755) which was fixed
in 2017. Since last August, the option is no longer used in new installations,
but old ones still use it.
