Description Kamil Páral 2018-10-26 09:27:05 UTC
Description of problem:
Originally mentioned in comments of bug 1640701. The refresh button doesn't really refresh the repos due to a bug, that should be fixed here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/commit/4e3dd2e94917742b111bbf860d0059116de7c973

The existing workaround is either to wait a few days and let packagekit refresh the repos in the background, or run this command:
$ pkcon refresh force

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-software-3.30.5-1.fc29
