Bug 392770

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 389765 ***

While the fix for Bug 393267 addressed the second point in my report, it doesn't address the first point:  being stuck with a `blue question mark'

once you left click on it, you get a prompt

I don't get a prompt.  I get the `Available Updates - openSUSE Updater' pane.  This pane has two tabs:  Patches and Updates.  Both are empty.

If I hover my mouse over the systray updater icon, as mentioned, I see `Do you want to check online for updates?'

Right-click'ing and selecting `Check Now' gives me a little bubble window emanating from the systray icon: 

   openSUSE Updater
   Do you want to check online for updates?

If I left click on the bubble, I get the `Available Updates' pane mentioned above.

With openSUSE 10.3, a `Check Now' would force the repository to be checked.

Thanks for your bug report. Fixed in version 0.7.14 now.

Thank you Thomas.

I'd like to test 0.7.14  I'm obviously not very smart as I just spent 25 minutes on the SuSE website trying to figure out where I can find a repository with the latest set of packages (a repository).

Any hints would be greatly appreciated!  :)

Sometimes the opensuse wiki page is a little bit complex and confusing. Sorry.

You can find the latest version for development here:
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/
It is for development and testing only, what means that it might be unstable.
Additional information is here: http://en.opensuse.org/Development_Version

The latest version of opensuseupdater will be added soon. I'll inform you when it is available.

Thank you for being kind.  I look forward to testing the new bits.

Version 0.7.16 is available in Factory now. 

I installed v0.7.16 and there's still an `infinite loop' problem although different than before.

First I want to say that forcing a `check now' works.  Thank you.

The problem is when there's an update.

o When there is an update, the `updater systray' icon changes to orange

o I left-click the icon and I see the items which need to be applied

o The `Available Updates' pane is presented and I can see in the `Patches' tab the item(s) which need to be applied.  I note they are selected

o I click on `Install'

o The `updater systray' icon goes to green

o I'm presented the `KDE su' window

o I enter my root password

o The window disappears; no update is started

o The `updater systray' icon goes to orange

Thanks for testing again.

That sounds like a kdesu bug #389765. Could you test with latest kdesu, please?

Hi Thomas,

Ha, thank you for being very responsive!

This morning I downloaded all the latest packages from the factory.  Bug #389765 doesn't state which version of `kdebase4-runtime' contains its fix however I'm running `kdebase4-runtime-4.0.4-15'

If there's a later version, please advise.

Cheers

I've tested with RC1. It works fine. Can you confirm that?

Hi Thomas,

I'm not sure if the updater icon should turn orange when there are no patches available.  I have an `Upgrade' pending and the icon is green.  When I hover my mouse over the icon, I get a pop-up message: `New software updates are available'

There's no visual indication that there are any updates; unless I hover my mouse over the systray icon.

There seems to be another issue.

o If I left-click on the systray icon, I get the `Available Updates' pane.  
o I select  the package and click on `Install'  
o I get the `kdesu' window where I enter my root password.
o I get an error saying `Package XXXX fails integrity check.  Do you want to retry?'  I click `OK'
o I get another pop-up saying:

  Problem occurred during or after installation or removal of packages: ABORT
  reqest:  User requested to abort.  Please see the above error message for a hint.  

  I click `OK'

... and I'm left scratching my head.

Two things:

1) The last message says:  `Please see the above error message...'  

   Above?  Perhaps it means to say `Previous'?  But by then, the pop-up is gone.

2) Typo on `reqest'

Thanks for testing.

It depends whether the icon should stay green or turn orange or red:
If security patches are available the icon is red. For normal patches it is orange. If there are no patches or only optional patches the icon is green.

This is caused because messages are displayed like zypper reports them. In the console theses messages are placed one upon the other.

Fixed this typo in libzypp.


Closing this bug because the original bug is solved. I think icon colors are also correct. The word 'previous' in the error message is a minor flaw. 
And the typo is fixed.
