--- Comment #11 from lnx...@westlot.net ---
The last update required two restarts.  The first downloaded the packages and
informed me to restart.  After restarting it informed me that there was a
System Update and required a reboot again after I clicked Update all.  It
didn't download anything on the second restart as the packages were already
downloaded, it just rebooted and installed the packages.  It did contain a
kernel update, but still should've taken only one restart.

It really should be figured out and made doable.  Rebooting the system, AFAIC,
should only be done for things that cannot be safely restarted (kernel updates,
filesystem libraries, etc), all other's should just require restarting the
service (Plasma, xwin, wayland, audio, whatever) or simply just reloading the
driver.  Rebooting for a simple application installation/update is absolutely
ridiculous.

If this is really resolved with no resolution other than "just deal with it",
then perhaps it's time to use Discover only for notification of an update and
use Synaptic or aptitude to perform the actual installation.
