I'll pass that on Related question: this is usually what happens (on multiple computers): - kpackagekit icon appears and tells me it's checking for updates - Notification pops up and I click on "update" - While the update is happening -- actually, quite early on -- *another* notification comes up and tells me again about the updates I'm already doing I've been attributing this -- on no evidence other than "gut feeling" -- to something like this: maybe kpackagekit does another refresh of the available packages after I start the update, which in turn triggers the second notification window. I've never been sufficiently interested to track it down, though. Does this happen to anyone else?
