Description Marko Jokinen 2025-03-29 18:07:56 UTC

There should be button or promt for restart system after updates. Especially on KDE Linux where restart is important to apply latest updates. This needs to be done in Discover's systemd sysupdate backend.

Alternative is to add Restart now or staging aka later on shutdown

There actually is a prompt, but it's not shown immediately after downloading the update due to a bug. If you restart the app and come back to the Updates page, you'll see it.

sysupdate: Fix ending of updates

We'd update the version to "" (as indicated in the comment there). When
successful, set the new installed version of the resource to the one
that was available prior to the update.

Otherwise it would end up in an odd state where it seems it hasn't
updated but it actually has.
