Description of problem: The last couple of weeks I haven't been able to use gpk-update-viewer to install updates. When started it dispalys an error message in a dialog window: Unable to get updates Could not process requests Opening 'More Details' reveals: Unknown filter part: unknown Closing the error message just leaves the updater window on screen, inactive. I've included the output from terminal running "gpk-update-viewer --debug" at the end of this report. I _can_ update packages through 'yum update' without problems. Could this be some garbaged config files or caches? Is there a way to reset everything that I could try? I reinstalled the package through 'yum reinstall gnome-packagekit', but it didn't help. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-packagekit 3.0.0-5.fc15 (x86_64) How reproducible: This happens everytime now, whether starting the program through gui or terminal. The problem started a couple of weeks ago, but I don't have the exact time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start gpk-update-viewer through gui or terminal. 2. 3. Actual results: Program immediately displays error message described above Expected results: Program displays a list of pending updates Additional info: Output from terminal: $ gpk-update-viewer --debug (gpk-update-viewer:7549): GnomePackageKit-DEBUG: ConsoleKit session ID: /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Session2 (gpk-update-viewer:7549): GnomePackageKit-DEBUG: using native mode: 700x600 (gpk-update-viewer:7549): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: This application can not open files.

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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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
