--- Comment #3 from Harald Sitter <sit...@kde.org> --- I am saying that when you update firefox that may pull in an update on libssl and that may break the already running plasmashell because of how plugins and lazy loading works in modern systems. That is why all updates coming out of packagekit are performed offline. Conversely all updates to flatpak or snaps are performed online as those can at most break the app itself - they are self-contained applications. The use cases here are: A) You can enable offline updates to perform safe updates without side effects (since they are performed in a minimally safe environment) B) You can disable offline updates and operate in YOLO mode but get away without reboot (things may randomly break in all sorts of fun ways until reboot) Switching between the two is really just option B) since you won't know that your not-self-contained firefox upgrade isn't going to break things. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
