in case of security updates with zero-deay exploits everywhere in
the news weekly updates are more absurd for a bleeding-edge
distribution - at this point the whole idea with offline-updates
should be recosindered (saying as KDE user which is running
yum daily per hand and updates-testing enabled, so not affected
from all this changes)
Whether the updates are done 'offline' or not has only little relation
to how often we check for available updates and notify the user.
The logic I recently implemented for gnome-software 3.12 in F21 is to
check for new updates once per day, and download updates when they are
important (e.g. security updates), or when it has been a week since the
last time we installed updates. When a consistent set of updates has
been downloaded, we notify the user about available updates.
