Description Nate Graham 2021-05-25 20:07:19 UTC
Description of problem:
When rebooting to apply an offline update, you are taken to the GRUB screen and asked to select a kernel before the offline update gets applied.


How reproducible:
100% reproducible.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Initiate an offline update in KDE's Discover software center app
2. Reboot


Actual results:
You are taken to the GRUB screen and asked to select a kernel. Once you do, the update is applied.


Expected results:
The update is applied without the user needing to select a kernel. The GRUB screen would only be shown when booting into an interactive environment, not the offline update environment.

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 34 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 34 on 2022-06-07.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '34'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 34 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
