Created attachment 798937 [details] gnome-settings-daemon logs Description of problem: Updates aren't installed when I try to update with gnome-software. System is rebooted twice, but no updates are installed. In logs I can see these things: failed to read: Feailed to open file '/var/lib/PackageKit/prepared-update': No such file or directory updates-plugin-WARNING **: failed to download: The backend exited unexpectedly. This is a serious error as the spawned backend did not complete the pending transaction. You can find gnome-settings-daemon logs in attachment. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-settings-daemon-3.9.91.1-2.fc20 gnome-software-3.9.3-2.fc20 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run gnome-software 2. go to updates 3. click on 'restart & install' 4. restart Actual results: No updates are installed. Expected results: Updates are installed Additional info:
This update method is meant to be default so I propose it as freeze exception. It violates this criterion: "The installed system must be able to download and install updates with yum and with the default graphical package manager in all release-blocking desktops." I propose it as FE because there is another possibility how to update with gui - PK which works and now is equivalent to gnome-software.
Can you please do (as root): killall packagekitd sudo /usr/libexec/packagekitd --backend=yum --disable-timer --verbose Then try to reproduce the bug. Hopefully a python backtrace should appear in the terminal. If so, that allows me to find the bug. Thanks.

Discussed in 2013-09-18 blocker review meeting [1]. While graphical updates are not required for alpha, fixing it would be a good move. A tested fix would be considered past freeze. [1] http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-09-18/
