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.
