Bug ID: 442637
Summary: System Updates' "system upgrade" section should be
separated into "Application Updates"
Product: Discover
Version: 5.22.90
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
Reporter: techxga...@outlook.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It seems to be fine in Kubuntu, where the software updates are split into
"Application updates" whereas in Neon, they all fall under "System upgrade",
and you can't pick and choose.
It'd be useful to be able to pick and choose, and to show that Discover won't
update packages that'll break other packages by not marking them (and giving
reason why), unless user triggers it themselves (then force a warning).
Right now, the only way I can tell Discover may not install packages that'll
break and remove others is by comparing how many are going to be updated vs
apt.
It just bring s peace of mind.
OBSERVED RESULT
Neon: most, if not all, updates, fall under "System Upgrade"
EXPECTED RESULT
Kubuntu: they are separated, and user has some level of control

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There are times when system update will work flawlessly, but end up breaking on
reboot because of version mismatch, like with a KWin update I experienced few
months ago rendered my system unbootable until I reverted a package. Just
something I figured I should share.
