GNOME intentionally avoids notifying you of updates very frequently to
try and avoid unnecessary distractions and reboots. I forget the
details of the heuristic, but it *will* notify immediately when updates
marked as security are available.

Beyond that, it's pretty much impossible to say without far more
details of exactly what desktop and updater you're using, and what
updates it did and did not install, from where.

We were having similar problems with F26 with my family's systems
starting around the time of F27 GA.  AFAIK upgrading to F27 fixed that.

update craziness

2018-01-05 Thread Howard Howell
Hi, guys,
Running F26 on AMD FX8300 system.
Have been keeping my system updated every time the notification
pops up with the reboot and install.

Today had a bit of cookiness happen on the web, so I decided to
do a manual dnf update from the CLI.  386 updates
It's still finalizing, then I will reboot, but what is
happening that the system doesn't appear to be up to date?

Regards,
Les H
