It's on my todo to have ksmserver load the shutdown qml stuff on login and then kept to prevent this exact situation. wouldn't using offline updates be the better solution to the problem? Yes. I don't see those happening in distributions in any feasible time frame though. I also have the feeling that last time I discussed that with someone raised reasonable concerns against them, alas, I can't remember what they were ^^. Supposedly it was that when the user needs to be informed about something or actively needs to take action (configuration changes, license aggrement, whatever) it makes the entire affair fairly faffy. Also if things break they break hard if reliable rollbacks aren't and option, and TBH the only reliable rollback is a brfs snapshot rollback. Anyway, we need some solution to the problem at hand, in addition to that we could poll distros for thoughts on out-of-session upgrades. The logout dialog is a separate binary now which shouldn't exhibit this problem. |
