notify updater with all history

[Maurizio Marini]

Hello
by some days (2 weeks or something like that)
the notify popup that warn me that some updates are ready to be applied, does
show me a very long history of updates needed by my system, many lines are
replicated, I have a 15" screen and now it fills up all screen vertically
It is boring
What can be done to avoid it?

The most obvious response is:  Install the updates waiting to be
installed.

But do you mean that you're getting notifications about updates that
have already been installed?

Or are you hoping to get rid of the notifications, and not care about
updates becoming available?

yes, of course I do, but that popup is a finger in my eye!

Yes, I get a very large popup, with all the notifications that have already
been installed.
I have 2 Fedora 23 and either have the same issue

Hi Maurizio,

Are you running Fedora Workstation (Gnome Desktop)?

Recently I disabled gnome-software update cache, so now Gnome Software
do not automaticaly update the updates database in a randomly way,
since this I don't have more updates notifications. I update every day
via command line, What I disliked from GNOME Software updates was to
reboot the system to fully install the new packages, I don't have to
do this when I update via command line.

This is the command:
su -c 'gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false'

Reference:

And also I disabled dnf automake update cache service:

su -c 'systemctl disable dnf-makecache.service'
su -c 'systemctl disable dnf-makecache.timer'

Polite as usual,
Porfirio.
