#14783 closed bug (fixed)

Notify user of held package transactions

Reported by: kallisti5 Owned by: nobody
Priority: normal Milestone: R1/beta2
Component: Applications/Command Line Tools Version: R1/Development
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description

After running pkgman update, additional package transactions are held until the next reboot. This isn't super obvious and means any additional package changes aren't reflected on the running system.

Example:

  • llvm7_clang installed
  • system updated
  • llvm7_clang uninstalled
  • clang binary still present

All of the messages after the update report a success, but don't mention the changes are being held.

Ideally, pkgman should report that "Warning: A pending system update has occurred, these changes will not be available until after the next reboot" or something similar.

We also need to figure out how to present the user with this info when the change occurs via the UI.

The package kit part was added in hrev52999.

SoftwareUpdater now displays this, so it's just pkgman that now needs to.

HaikuDepot and pkgman now do so as of hrev53176.
