[Bug 580529] New: KUpdateApplet spams the screen during online update (KDE4.3.5 update possibly)
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580529 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580529#c0 Summary: KUpdateApplet spams the screen during online update (KDE4.3.5 update possibly) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: llunak@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Blocks: 561660 Found By: --- Blocker: Yes Steps to reproduce: - 11.2, with all online updates - change the update repository from update/11.2 to update/11.2-test - check in kupdateapplet for new updates and run update - after a while when the update is in process, kupdateapplet shows an error dialog about 'DBus error : Unable to get transaction id from packagekit.' and starts spamming the desktop with notifications about a problem It appears that the online update process itself actually continues while this happens and finishes successfully, but this may lead the user to believe there is a problem and e.g. abort the update halfway or do some other action. Moreover the whole right part of the desktop (with the default desktop layout) can be covered by the notifications during the entire process of the update. I do not know what is causing it, but since I assume this is somehow triggered by the KDE update (bug ##561660) and I'd prefer we do not do the online update this way, I set this to blocker. -- 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.

i did not get the spam though. It spamed the screen with error messages when too many update were installed at once. I guess you install updates on a regular basis and do not wait until a lot of packages accumulate.

Actually, as far as I can judge, it's again PackageKit being broken and not notifying about the need to restart. Lovely. PackageKit maintainers, could you please investigate why packagekit doesn't notify about the needed restart?
