[opensuse-kde] Question about the Leap KDE Update App in the tray
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. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

I don't get any authorization dialog at all. For me on Leap, with official Leap KDE packages, it (plasma5-pk-updates) lets me install updates as a normal user, without any authorization. I never tried changing the time interval though. Since it only offers daily, weekly and monthly. But it is slightly annoying that it produces notifications multiple times during a session if there are updates available not installed. Overall, I think it's the best update applet we've had in ages though. And yes, it's developed on the KDE infrastructure by some Fedora people. But it's not part of the official KDE Plasma releases - at least not yet, maybe it won't be as it depends on PackageKit. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org

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). -- Regards, Uzair Shamim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
