Could you provide your gnome-shell version in that bug report and ask whether it should be fixed in it or not yet? Maybe they have missed some corner cases. > That ticket talks about dismissing/closing notifications, which may be something completely different. I'm not a fan of the current notification system. Typically I don't notice the small circle right of the date. I don't think I closed/dismissed notifications before they would come back after reboot. I likely didn't open them. They become stale, apparently don't expire, and nothing checks whether they are still current? Just some minutes ago, I noticed the circle, clicked on it: Software Updates available, but the started gnome-software claims """Software is up to date (Last checked: 12:41)""". Meanwhile, running "dnf update" shows 64 new packages. Guys, that smells like major breakage in several areas to me. The last update with dnf was run on 2015-04-24, so what does the notification refer to? I take it there is no history feature available in gnome-software? > > "An important software update has failed", and clicking it only starts > > gnome-software with no hint on what has failed or when.

I have discussed this with Matthias Clasen, he says the notifications should carry a hint to the program in question and open the correct part of the program. In case of gnome-software, you should see an upgrade results overview (with the same output as in `pkcon offline-status`), instead of just opening the app in the default view. It's a bug. > Usually I'm too late filing such tickets and developers are aware of the problem already, use something newer, while Fedora has included broken releases. Anyway, I've opened 748582 and 748583. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
