Bug ID: 517630
Summary: Inconsistent usage of "device", "computer", "system"
in restart strings
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version First 6.6.2
Reported In:
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Updates
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A small papercut - the Discover UI seems unable to decide whether to refer to a
device, a computer, or a system, when it asks to restart.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install some updates that require a restart
2. Look in the main Discover UI Updates tab, and hover the mouse over the
System Tray icon
OBSERVED RESULT
Main UI says:
Updates will be installed after the *system* is restarted. You can keep using
the *system* if you're not ready to restart yet.
System Tray tooltip says:
Click to restart the *device*
*Computer* needs to restart
EXPECTED RESULT
Consistent usage of one of the words system, device, or computer, not all
three!
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20260312
KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.23.0
Qt Version: 6.10.2
Kernel Version: 6.19.5-1-default (64-bit)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is in British English, by the way.
I'll let someone else decide which of the three words to use (although I think
"system" is best).
Regarding the tooltip in the System Tray, to be honest "Click to restart the
system. System needs to restart" (if that is what you would change it to) is
still rather an odd message, especially as it doesn't say why and doesn't
mention updates at all. Maybe "Click to restart the system. System needs to
restart to install updates" or something.
