http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=547764 Summary: Updater-applet does not show up when checking for updates using packagekit/using packagekit in any way Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 1 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: badshah400@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-3.2 Firefox/3.5.3 Checking for updates from application-browser -> software update viewer. But the applet in the system-tray does not show up while the checking is in progress. This used to work correctly in 11.0. In fact I do not see any updater-applet or similar app in 11.2 rc1. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start software update viewer. 2.See if there is an applet in system-tray. 3. Actual Results: No applet is seen Expected Results: Some applet indicating package-kit is busy should be showing up in the system-tray/notification area. Unfortunately messages like "software management is locked by packagekitd" is fairly common, but there is nothing that indicates to the user that packagekit is working. Some applet should be present like in 11.1 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
