Description Timothée Ravier 2021-05-03 15:38:37 UTC

SUMMARY

The rpm-ostree backend currently shows the next refs (i.e. major version) to rebase to as soon as it is available in the upstream repo which is usually too soon (Fedora gets branched a couple of months before the release).

We should figure out how GNOME Software does the check for the next Fedora release to be able to display the rebase button only when the next version of Fedora Kinoite is effectively available.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Be on version N, have version N+1 branched (ref available) but not yet released as stable
2. Fetch updates

OBSERVED RESULT

Rebase to N+1 available

EXPECTED RESULT

No rebase offered

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Fedora Kinoite only
