In the Fedora 22 / KDE 5 task bar there is a "Software Updates" widget.
Where is the setting to remove that? It's inappropriate for arbitrary

Right click systray ^ =>
system tray settings =>
General section, under "Extra Items", uncheck "Software Updates"
Thanks, Rex. Yes, that's exactly what I wanted.
But, can't that same arbitrary user go back and re-check "Software
Updates"?
I thought the goal was to really keep any user from applying updates.
That seems to just hide it from them and if they look around they can turn
it back on.
Yes, if you want to be rid of it completely, then remove the package:
plasma-pk-updates
Not being a KDE user I don't know for sure, but even if it alerts that
updates are available, a normal user can't install them unless they're
members of the "wheel" group or they have the root password, not so?
That's the way it works on XFCE IIRC.
I'm the only user on my desktop machines, so I typically have a root
shell open and do a "yum update" or "dnf update" from there.
