This is intentional. Reading pacman output during an upgrade is fundamental for an Arch Linux system proper maintenance Thanks for your quick response! I have read it and think we might misunderstand each other but please correct me if I am wrong. I would expect there not to be inconsistent behavior. The output of pacman is either shown only sometimes and/or with the bulk of it missing. I have uploaded this video to show exactly what I mean: https://youtu.be/t3OjDziJYIY What is shown in discover is the output of the post upgrade scripts. There is no need to show the package upgrade status as that is already shown graphically and would be redundant In that case I want to thank you for your time and hope you have a great day :) |
Created attachment 171619 [details] Updates tab in Discover with pacmans mkinitcpio output SUMMARY Running an update with pacman where there is output from dkms or mkinitcpio, results in the Discover > Updates tab showing that output. This occurs specifically when using pacman and not when using mkinitcpio on its own. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Discover 2. Navigate to Updates 3. Open a terminal and run "pacman -S linux" ( or linux-lts...; pacman must call the "Updating linux initcpios..." hook) OBSERVED RESULT The lower portion of the updates tab shows the output of mkinitcpio. EXPECTED RESULT Nothing should be displayed as there was no interaction with the settings page and this is not the type of update one can do from here.
