Hi all

I dont really want this to be a negative post, just want to share something
in order to start a healthy discussion

*Background*
Im a Fedora desktop user, have been for many years, going all the way back
to Fedora Core 1 - I use Fedora on a daily basis, its my main (in fact only
OS)

*Issue*
Im very comfortable with the CLI, but spend the majority of the time in the
GUI - I noticed a behaviour change in myself recently - I now NEVER use the
GUI Software Update tool. I noticed the other day but its been like this
for quite some time.

My workflow is - the GUI tool tells me there are updates, I dismiss it and
open a terminal and do sudo dnf update -y

Why is this?  Well some time ago the behaviour of the tool changed and now
the only way to proceed is to click in "Restart and Install" and this is
NEVER what I want to do. I never want to reboot my desktop just to apply
updates, Id rather apply all the updates and reboot to bring in the new
kernel (if there is one) when I have the time

I cant help but feel this is, to me anyway,. a broken design, are there
others that feel the same or am I alone on this

Id be interested in the original rationale behind this change, as I say, I
dont wont to start a bitching session, just interested in why this change
happened

Adrian
