Hi, I have just done a sudo dnf upgrade on F34 which I think upgraded 1311 packages. After the update finished I rebooted F34 and then ran discovery and it was still telling me there was 628 MB of F34 Platform updates to put on, which I did put on. Why is dnf not installing all done to alleviate this that is not done in an "out of the box" install, should be using Discovery instead?
I think plasma-discover uses PackageKit. As has been noted several times here, mixing dnf and PK often leads to confusion. Better pick one and stick with it.
Personally, I erased PK and don't use plasma-discover, and I don't see these kinds of problem.
I probably misunderstood the OP. I haven't (yet) banished packageKit from my system.
I have not had a situation where an update was performed and immediately followed by a need for another update. I do my updates with "dnf --refresh update".
The only thing I've seen is when packageKit is telling me there are updates but when dnf runs it says no updates are available. I attribute that to packageKit using different mirrors than dnf.
