In a posting in the "downsized grub menu" thread, I said:
"Something keeps trying to do automated updates, but I have not been
able to figure out what, or how to shut it off."
Tim replied, and suggested looking for something similar to MATE's
"mate-session-properties". I'm starting this new thread to address
this issue.
I found a settings gui in gnome, but I cannot find anything (other
than ".bashrc" and ".bash_profile") for managing what is
automatically started when I log in.
In a LibreOffice thread some time ago, I was advised to install a
gnome package called "Software" so I could install a font needed to
replace a discontinued font in my LibreOffice products. This is when
I started seeing the unwanted update checking and notices. I have
not been able to find a way to configure the package "Software" at
all.
have you seen this wikipedia entry, "GNOME Software is a utility for
software installation and updates..."
I'm using a debian derivative but on my package manager it's described
as "gnome-software", apparently from here:

How do I get rid of the unwanted update checking and notifications?
By the way, I manually patch the workstation almost every week with
"dnf upgrade". Like some other members of this list, I prefer doing
this manually.
