Bug ID: 399869 Summary: No feedback on the update page when updating backends Product: Discover Version: 5.14.0 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: discover Assignee: aleix...@kde.org Reporter: mayeul.can...@live.fr Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY This is probably due to slow backends. As originally stated in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385754#c22 Discover can be slow to display the list of packages that need updates. During this time, it displays "no updates available", which is a bit misleading, as can be seen in the aforelinked thread. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Wait for some updates to show up 2. Click on the tray icon -> display updates 3. Wait for a few seconds in front of the "no updates" screen (up to a few minutes, especially on slow connections) for updates to be displayed OBSERVED RESULT Discover is slow to display the list of updates. The user does not receive any feedback during this time. EXPECTED RESULT It would be nice to display something like "Discover is compiling the list of updates" or "Discover is checking for updates", with a spinner. Best would be to list each backend separately, and display its status: no updates, checking, X updates, separately.
