Description Kalcifer 2023-08-02 03:02:10 UTC
SUMMARY
The automatic software updater does not appear to do anything in Discover when enabled. I have packages installed as flatpaks through discover, but enabling the auto updater does not automatically update them.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable automatic software updates: Enable `System Settings>Software Update>Update software>Automatically`
2. Observe that updates accumulate in discover, but they never get updated.

OBSERVED RESULT
Automatic updates do not occur


EXPECTED RESULT
I expect that when I enable "Update software: Automatically", the software in Discover would get automatically updated.
