When a security package update is available, Updater icon with a red dot appears in the system tray. If I install updates (in the command line using apt or using Muon package manager or Discover), the icon doesn't disappear but changes to the "non-security updates available" (i.e. the one without the red dot). Clicking on the icon says "1 package to update". `sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade` does not find any packages to update. I'm on Kubuntu 18.04, KDE Discover 5.12.4. The problem didn't appear in Kubuntu 17.10.
Do you have the Flatpak backend installed?
No, I assume I don't. I didn't install it explicitly and Discover shows "Install" buttons for both Flatpak and Snap backends.
Also, plasma-discover-flatpak-backend and plasma-discover-snap-backend packages are not installed.
Thanks, then this is Bug 385754. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 385754 ***
Er, I mean Bug 392063. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 392063 ***
In that bug, you say the Updater starts to work as expected if you remove the Flatpak backend. In my case I do *not* have Flatpak installed and it still doesn't work. Are you sure it is a duplicate?

Hmm, I could have sworn we already had a bug tracking this... Oh well, let's use this one!

I can confirm this behavior in a new session the is always one "1" update even after a set of updates installed seconds before. Discover has the three backends installed , removing the flatpak one and login in and out will remove the "1" pending update.
if you run `flatpak update` on the command line, does it show any updates?
After updating by the command line multiple packages were downloaded/updated and when they were installing the notification icon on discover disappeared.
Sounds like you're hitting a different bug, then; in this case the Update Notifier plasmoid was correctly alerting you to the presence of additional updates! :) Were those Flatpak updates visible in Discover? Or were they only visible when using the `flatpak` command in a terminal?
Discover notification said there is "1" one update pending then after opening the updates tab is was empty saying no "new" updates. And using the command updated multiple packages i saw the name of at least 4 contrary of the one discover thinks it was.
OK. So that's a different bug: Bug 385754.
It seems so i will leave feedback on the other one.
Can you still reproduce? I haven't seen this issue.
Cannot reproduce on 5.12.x or git master. All remaining occurrences have been due to Bug 385754. Recommend closing until and unless we get a reproducible case.
