AFAIK this is a KDE application. In Leap it does not honor the settings on how often and when to check for tings and is annoying because you have to click away the "authorization" dialogue. a) it could be that I did not search with the right keyword and the bug has been reported. b) it could be that it is already fixed upstream so a report would not be necessary if fixed in Leap 42.2.

Does anybody have more detailed info about this? If not I would then report it to be sure I will get rid of it in 42.2.

Thank you.

Not sure if I am missing the rest of the thread but wrt the auth popups you should be able to configure the security requirements for the update applet via polkit. IIRC you change /etc/polkit-default-privs.local and add what you need, in this case you can change org.freedesktop.packagekit* settings.

You can see what all the possible configurable options are in the /etc/polkit-default-privs.standard file (but dont edit it, use default-privs.local instead).

Thank you for pointing to it. Actually it is not about the auth dialogue itself, this one is desired (by me) as "users" should not be able to apply updates or install software without root authorization ever. What the problem was about was: due to an interaction between zypper and package-kit, the "frequency" setting of the applet is not honored. To be clearer: e.g. if you set the applet to check once per day, it will check every time you have loss of network, everytime you suspend, even every time you switch in certain condition user session on the same machine. If you are running normal security and users are allowed to install packages, you will not notice this because the authorization dialogue does not pop up. Still you did set "check once per day" and it checks x per day instead For what I did understand that will be fixed soon, in the sense that the for originating conflict between zypper and packagekit there will be a work around. But thank you anyway for the info. --- Mail & Cloud Made in Germany mit 3 GB Speicher! https://email.freenet.de/mail/Uebersicht?epid=e9900000450 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
