Created attachment 660884 [details] Screenshot Description of problem: User menu offers 'Install Updates & Restart' even though there are no real updates. I've updated my system via the command line. Now there are only some debuginfo updates available and that's only because the ' auto-update-debuginfo' plugin gets loaded. When this plugin is disabled, there are no updates available. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-3.6.2-3.fc18.x86_64 gnome-packagekit-3.6.1-2.fc18.x86_64 gnome-settings-daemon-3.6.3-1.fc18.x86_64 gnome-session-3.6.2-2.fc18.x86_64 systemd-195-10.fc18.x86_64 How reproducible: See description. See attachment. Steps to Reproduce: 1. See description. 2. 3. Actual results: User menu offers 'Install Updates & Restart' when there are no updates. Expected results: User menu offers 'Install Updates & Restart' *only* when there are updates. Additional info: The 'Install Updates & Restart' should be only visible when there are updates that *really* require a reboot. Debuginfo and most (all?) leaf packages probably aren't the case.
Forgot to mention that restarting gnome-shell didn't help.
I am experiencing the same proglem. I installed updates yesterday (one of which was a kernel update) and finally got around to rebooting my computer this morning. I'm running the new kernel and I have the updates, but the "Reboot & Install Updates" is still there. If it helps, my computer didn't boot correctly the first time (there were issues with the new kernel that have since been resolved).
I see this, also. And the updates applied successfully (both yum-complete-transaction and "yum update" as root exit with no action necessary).
This shows up with transaction set that included a new kernel ... went to reboot and saw the "Reboot & Install Updates" ... so I selected that option. After reboot got a completely different gui login screen. Selected option to "Reboot & Install Updates" again ... hoping the message would be cleared, it was not. No pending updates or incomplete transactions.
Interesting: When I came back from work, the menu item has disappeared on its own. The only significant system change I have made was to install gnome-shell-extension-weather. Perhaps installing that made PackageKit/GNOME "reset" itself somehow? Next time there's a system update requiring reboot, I'll try it and then try it again after installing something.
Since this morning I have same problem, "Install Updates & Restart" in "Usermenu" with no update to install. How to reset it ?

Shouldn't that file be called offline-updated-completed? (it's -competed on my system too, but I believe that's a typo)
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. 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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 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, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. 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.
Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
