Re: New Discover

Really? Discover seems to insist on reboot for *every* update. Apper,
on the other hand certainly doesn't, even for system updates. I
understand they don't get applied until rebooting.

However, Discover seems to list lots of things as "system" which really
aren't. I've just got notification of a SkypeForLinux update and sure
enough, after I install it, Discover says a reboot is required. I
understand I don't have to do it, but surely better to exclude poor
information than simply to know, which not veryone will, that it can be
ignored.

Slightly annoyed of the UK
