Can confirm. It needs to revoke the notification in the case that it's still visible in the history. This is odd. Doesn't close() revoke it? https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/blob/master/notifier/DiscoverNotifier.cpp#L89 |
Created attachment 142168 [details] "Updates available" notification being shown while Discover is up-to-date SUMMARY Discover's "updates available" notification remains even after updating. While running in the background, Discover realizes there are updates available and emits the "Updates available" notification to KDE's notification center. If the user runs Discover without clicking that notification and updates everything, the notification is not cleared. The user may look at it only hours later and will be fooled into thinking there are more updates to be applied when there is actually none. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Wait for Discover to notify that it has updates available 2. Run Discover through other means, do not acknowledge the notification, don't click the "View Updates" button inside the notification. 3. Update everything inside Discover OBSERVED RESULT The notification will remain in the notification center, even though the system is up to date. EXPECTED RESULT The notification should have been cleared from the notification center. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.14.9-arch2-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION If the KDE notification framework doesn't provide a way for Discover to clear its own notification, then there is a bug in that framework and should be addressed there first. It should allow apps to clear their own notifications when they are no longer relevant.
