Bug ID: 435845
Summary: Shutdown/Restart & Apply Updates
Product: Discover
Version: 5.21.4
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Updates (unattended)
Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Both the GNOME (AFAIK) & Windows (for sure) implementations of Offline Updates
provide a very useful feature that IMO is essential if we want to reduce user
frustration around offline updates.
That feature is that as well as the usual Shutdown/Restart menu options there
is also "Apply Updates & Shutdown" & "Apply Updates & Restart" options
available after preparing an offline update. These do as you might expect; the
first reboots into the offline environment, applies the updates and then shuts
the system down, the second does the same but reboots instead of shutting the
system down.
This lets people "walk away" at the end of the day for example with the first
option knowing that updates will be applied and their machine turned off.
Crucially though they will not suffer additional "boot-up" time when they next
use their machines. The second option provides a similar benefit, I see that
more as a "I have a second so lets get these updates applied" scenario.
