Description Steve Cossette 2023-03-29 19:26:06 UTC
Installed the new plasma that allows for updating using Discover from Fedora 37 to Fedora 38 (From here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/aleasto/discover-distro-upgrade/packages/)

Distro upgrade occurs in the background, but the discover UI seems to fail to show more information, or a decent estimation. The progress bar seems to be about accurate though. Shouldn't there be some kind of popup after it completed, to tell the user that it completed and a reboot is required to apply?

The "More information" button is also greyed out and does nothing except make the update information smaller.

So, I've checked and it seems discover doesn'T really do update notification completion, so if anything, I can create a separate suggestion ticket about this.

Though I think there should still be a "Downloading (5%)" in the progress bar or something to show the user how the update is progressing.
