--- Comment #13 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> --- We *do* announce that a reboot is needed when you're not using Offline Updates. We do it in two places once the update is completed: 1. The app window itself changes to a big message that says "reboot now" and has a button you can click on to reboot 2. A system notification is shown that says the same thing, and it also has a button We could make the system notification persistent so that it has to be explicitly closed. Right now it times out after the normal system timeout duration (5 seconds by default). However if we do this we will surely get bug reports from the people who are annoyed by notifications. Everything is a trade-off. If the update in question did not actually show the "you need to update" message, then I think it may be a bug in your distro's packaging. Distros mark packages as "this will require a reboot when updated" or not. Or you can just use offline updates which leave your system untouched and safe until you choose to reboot at your leisure. I'm not sure it makes sense to significantly change the Online Update use case to fix this issue when Offline Updates have already fixed it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
