This is the way Discover is programmed right now, so this is really a feature request, not a bug. I think it's worth considering either making Discover not ask again for the session, or have a checkbox to allow this per session. |
SUMMARY Skype is EOL, but I wanted it to backup its database before getting rid of completely, just not right now. However, whenever Discover starts up and checks for updates, which it usually does after booting, it pops up, even over full screen windows and asks to remove the EOL flatpak application. The user is presented with two choices: Uninstall or Abort. If you click the latter, the dialog vanishes, but shortly after pops up again. The only way to really ignore the warning for a longer term, is to either minimize Discover or to close it. 1) I'd be great if Discover stops asking for this session if the user clicks on "Abort" - and especially does not pop over other (fullscreen!) windows and steals focus input 2) I'd be great to have an option, that one purposely wants to keep an EOL package - for sure it would make sense, that a hint is kept displayed in Discover, which remembers the user, that an EOL package exists.F SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 42 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.16.0 Qt Version: 6.9.1 Kernel Version: 6.15.8-200.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
