Bug ID: 460405
Summary: Discover notifies updates are available, but there are
none.
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Notifier
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: terry.forsy...@iplawpro.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The discover notifier indicates "Updates available". I open Discover, and it
indicates "Up to date", even after selecting "Refresh".
This is the same bug as reported in numerous other bug reports that are
indicated as being fixed (e.g., bug 438670). The bug is back with version
5.26.0 on Arch Linux (or at least on my Arch system).
This bug does NOT occur on my Neon system, which also is updated to version
5.26.0.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log into the Plasma Desktop.
2. Look at the Discover Notifier, indicating "Updates available".
3. Open Discover, indicating "Up to date".
OBSERVED RESULT
The notifier indicates "Updates available", but Discover indicates "Up to
date".
EXPECTED RESULT
The notifier would only indicate "Updates available" if actually there are
updates available.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Kernel: 6.0.1-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6
Graphics Platform: X11
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is another issue relating to Flatpaks which may or may not be related to
this issue. I will file a separate bug report for that one. That issue is
that when I opened Discover, it was hanging indefinitely on searching for
updates. The work around for that was to rename
/usr/lib/qt/plugins/discover/flatpak-backend.so to something else so that the
file is not recognized by Discover. The problem with that solution, if my
understanding is correct, is that Discover will not be able to find updates for
Flatpaks.
