Description of problem: Since upgrading from F14 to F15, gnome doesn't display an icon/message anymore when there are new software updates available. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): PackageKit-0.6.14-2.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: I have set (by means of gpk-prefs) to check for updates Daily. When updates were available 2 days ago (checked via 'yum update', or gpk-update-viewer) there was no notification message and/or icon informing me about them. Steps to Reproduce: 1. wait until updates for installed packages become available 2. after that, wait at least 24 hours 3. log in Actual results: No notifications are issued when software updates are available. Expected results: A notification should be issued to the user, informing them about available software updates. Additional info: My user status is 'Available' (not 'Busy', since this can prevent notifications). I've set it to check daily. Updates are available for 3 days now, without a notification being issued.
same here with set it to check hourly ...

So the solution would be to change frequency-updates-notification gsettings ? How to change this ?
I've yet to see a notification of any type of software updates, critical or not since I installed Fedora 15.
It seems a similar effect is being seen using kpackagekit as well, regardless of kpk's "Check for updates" preference (e.g. if set to Hourly, Daily), it seems to not display anything until much later.
Problem exist here too. Did preupgrade from f14->f15. PackageKit-0.6.14-2.fc15.x86_64 I'm experiencing this as a KDE user.
Possible false alarm on my part, I reset the kpk preference to hourly, restarted the box, and several minutes after login I see an updates notification.
I have not seen a single notification since an upgrade via yum to F15 several months ago, on two machines.
packagekitd is not running on my system btw.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '15' 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 15 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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
