This is on Fedora 21. The gist is that /var gets mounted later than the check for /var/.updated used to trigger offline updates. Therefore if you have a separate /var volume, rather than a directory, you're not getting updates, and this is a silent fail. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1178978 Questions: a.) Is the silent fail for offline updates itself a bug or need to be a feature request? b.) Should this be a common bugs for Fedora 21? It's probably rare to both have /var separate and depend on offline updates as the sole update mechanism. c.) Should this be set to Rawhide? It's not fixed in a newer version of systemd, so I imagine it's a problem on Rawhide also and it's a beta criteria violation: "The installed system must be able to download and install updates with the default graphical package manager in all release-blocking desktops."
