Description Stephan Binner 2007-08-09 17:36:37 UTC

When only optional updates are available the system tray icon and tool tip has the same icon/text as for recommended updates (arguable if one should get a notification about them at all).

Clicking on the icons open the attached dialog:

  - no text description what type of "new software available" it is
  - clicking on the active "Install" button will do nothing
  - one has to open the detailed dialog to select optional updates and click install in there.

opensuse-updater-kde should in this case either install optional updates by default when clicking "Install" or disable the "Install" button and display a text (with information about the amount) "You can select optional updates in the detailed dialog".

I think default installation of optional updates is undesirable.
Therefore the number of optional updates and a note about using the details window is shown.
Fixed in svn r6567.

Submitted to stable.

> I think default installation of optional updates is undesirable.

Then it really shouldn't show the orange icon and a popup every 15min when there are only optional updates available. :-)

Tray icon is green and no notification popups are shown when only optional updates are available. Fixed in svn r6809.

Could someone please add an option to hide the package? After time I will have 120 optional packages that I don't want to install but I will have to see them every time (and scroll). Would be very nice if we could hide the ones we won't install anyway (and a "Show hidden").

Re-opened this one as an enhancement. I guess it fits the title. Next time will fill my own report ;-)

Why only next time? ;-(
