Created attachment 924690 [details] journalctl -b -l -o short-monotonic Description of problem: Software informs me there are two updates available. I click the Restart & Install button, the system restarts but nothing is installed, and upon launching Software the same two updates are still present. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-software-3.13.4-2.fc21.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click Restart & Install 2. 3. Actual results: System restarts, no installation occurs. Software continues to list available updates. Expected results: Restart, installation of updates, another restart. Additional info: I'm not sure what triggers (systemd?) the update, so I'm attaching the entire journal for the boot immediate after clicking Restart & Install, the one that should have installed the updates. Could be useless.

This looks suspicious: [ 18.139218] twenty1.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting of systemd-update-done.service requested but condition failed.

But what's supposed to trigger the update? Either gnome-software isn't setting the trigger or systemd isn't honoring it. I suspect the latter because when I reboot from the far right pull-down menu to reboot, I get a floating dialog asking me if I want to install pending software updates; choosing that results in the same behavior: no update. So it's not just gnome-software. Seems like systemd isn't picking up the ball.
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/SystemUpdates/ OK I'm following steps 1-4, but I get lost in between the system update script being run, which it appears not to be, and the part about taking a Btrfs snapshot which is definitely not done. Looking like this is a systemd bug. system-update -> /var/cache exists. I don't know why it takes three spawnings, but the generator is spawned.

Still a problem with these versions: gnome-software-3.13.5-0.1.git5c89189.fc21.x86_64 systemd-215-11.fc21.x86_64 Proposing as beta blocking: The installed system must be able to download and install updates with the default graphical package manager in all release-blocking desktops. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_21_Beta_Release_Criteria#Updates
Can you retest with PackageKit-1.0.0-2.fc21 and gnome-software-3.13.92-2.fc21, please? These releases had a number of fixes that should improve the reliability of offline updates. Thanks!
Appears fixed in Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21_Alpha-1.iso which use: PackageKit-0.9.5-1.fc21 gnome-software-3.13.91-1.fc21 systemd-215-11.fc21 Both restarting from gnome-software and gnome-shell restart/poweroff dialog result in an updated system, and no post-install confusion whether there are still pending updates.
Excellent, thanks for testing!
