Created attachment 134001 [details] Screenshot of the issue SUMMARY Discover presents the user with the availability of updates for some packages, like Waterfox or Palemoon, but then reports them as being 0 B and does not update them when asked to. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. install Waterfox or Palemoon through their PPAs on Ubuntu (or derivatives, such as Neon) 2. wait for an update to be offered 3. try to update it OBSERVED RESULT The package is not updated. EXPECTED RESULT The package is updated. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: KDE Neon Focal KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0 Qt Version: 5.15.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The packages are correctly updated when using apt or Muon. The problem seems to be that the version stays the same, for whatever reason, and Discover then refuses to update them.
A few questions: 1. Are all PPA-originated packages listed as 0B, or just this one, or just some? 2. If you wait a little while, does the real size get populated? 3. If the real size is eventually populated, does the update succeed if you tell it to update after that has happened?

So far only Waterfox and Palemoon have exhibited this behaviour on my install. PPAs are fine, while these packages are hosted on OpenSUSE's infrastructure. The real size is never populated and the update never succeeds, so I need to use either the terminal or Muon to carry out the update. I've been observing this bug for a while (months) and in the past I tried waiting for a few days for the correct size to appear and for the update to go through, but that never happened.
So these packages don't come from PPAs but rather an OBS repo? What is the URL?

The URLs are as follows: - Waterfox: https://build.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox - Palemoon: https://software.opensuse.org//download.html?project=home%3Astevenpusser&package=palemoon
Thanks. How did you add these repos?

i am having the same issues. screenshots attached. my problem app is waydroid
Created attachment 146477 [details] waydroid 0B
Created attachment 146478 [details] waydroid repo
Is it possible that these files are already downloaded? That would be a reason for packagekit to report 0B.
(In reply to Aleix Pol from comment #12) > Is it possible that these files are already downloaded? That would be a > reason for packagekit to report 0B. I wouldn't bet on it. Installing them through Muon, as an example, downloads them from scratch, and the same happens downloading them with apt-get from the terminal. Incidentally, on my tablet I have had the same issue with Waydroid as Johnathan above. Marking the bug as "confirmed" since it affects more people than just myself.
