Title:
gnome-software wants to upgrade held packages
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Confirmed
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[Steps to Reproduce]
====================
1. $ sudo apt-mark hold ____
(substitute name of the package you want held
2. GNOME Software should not notify about held package(s) as an available
update. Maybe it shouldn't list held packages in the Updates page either.
GNOME Software does not actually upgrade held packages but it's
confusing that it looks like it's going to.
Update Manager shows held packages in the update list but they are
unchecked (and unable to be checked).
[Original Bug Description]
==========================
I have a held package, and gnome-software keeps popping up the "upgrades are
available" notification. Looking at it what it wants to upgrade, there is only
the held package. I haven't clicked 'install' to see if it will actually do
so, but held packages should not be upgraded by gnome-software.
