Andrew - that patch seems reasonable with the existing code, as the daemon does the auto-updates, so no client should be performing it. This should probably be done with a quirk, so the update monitor doesn't need to special case Snaps (or the firmware as it currently does). But that is better discussed on an upstream MR.
James - G-S doesn't currently have a mechanism to say why each operation is being performed, but I imagine we could add one. In this case it doesn't make sense as G-S shouldn't try and auto update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1862158 Title: gnome-software tries to install snap updates in the background, causing unprompted polkit authentication for authorisation to install packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1862158/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
