Did you enable automatic updates? That would disable the update history as they are being done outside of PackageKit so we can't show them.

Comment 2 Martin Pitt 2026-02-03 15:35:14 UTC
It's likely that this is due to the recent PackageKit update, see https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/22828 .

Automatic updates are not enabled. I just do an occasional manual initiation of of update check with the 'Status' button.
No update history reports since Dec 17 2025.
