Description tz 2011-03-26 15:28:32 UTC
Description of problem:

With the notificatino, start updating, click the start update


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

always, at least when firefox is running and there is an update to it (usually with lots of other things)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have something running (in this case I think it is firefox)
2. Do a software update
3. Close what you think might be the conflicting program (firefox)
  
Actual results:
"Checking for Applications Currently in Use" and it never goes away even if you close firefox.  It may be something else besides or in addition to firefox but the only option is to quit.

Expected results:
Any combination of the following:
1. notification to manually or automatically close program X.
2. Proceed when program X is closed.
3. Can't install now, allowing a retry of the whole
4. "Install every package you can at this moment, ignore blocked"
5. Download the packages to install later when closed.

seems not to be socat related. Maybe it is PackageKit.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 15:17:41 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

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

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
