[Bug 535836] New: Updater applet shows no updates but yast does

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=535836 Summary: Updater applet shows no updates but yast does Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 6 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: john.m.pemberton@sbcglobal.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-2.4 Firefox/3.5.2 Updater applet shows no updates, but when I initially enter Software Management in yast, a list of items to update is displayed. This has happened both with M5 and M6. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: AFAIK, this happened the first time I entered Yast after an install. But I haven't repeatedly re-installed to verify that. It could be an intermittent problem. I entered yast to install something else, but hadn't yet requested that anything be installed. Yet a list of things to install was displayed, which appeared to be updates. Sorry I can't provide more detail. -- 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.

However, I've added a text file attachment that contains the output of "pkcon -v" which shows one of the repo downloads failing. -- 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.

What I indicated was that, at the same point in time, yast and the updater applet disagree, about what updates are available. I may have misunderstood the context, but I thought that the configuration of what repositories were used by the installed Linux system, was common to both yast and the updater applet. If it is common to both, then it would seem that both should show the same list of updates, at the same point in time. Is the list of repositories to use not common to both? Or is some factor that makes it OK for the two to disagree about what updates are available? -- 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.
