Title:
force reminder to install when I want
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When I logged into a WiFi network with Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, a dialog
said there are updates and asked if I want them now. Time being
potentially too short, I clicked to Remind Me Later. I did some work,
then put the laptop to sleep and woke it about an hour later. At that
time, I wanted to apply the updates, but Ubuntu acted like there are
none. I clicked for the Files app to check and it said it was updated
about 2 weeks ago, with nothing new since then, contradicting the
pending reminder. In the Settings app, at Details > About, I clicked
Check For Updates but nothing happened. I do not use the update
feature that requires logging in. The next day the updates were
offered. Perhaps (and this is just a guess) I had to wait for Ubuntu
to prepare another update in order for me to get the pending ones I
wanted to be reminded about.
What I expect: If I don't install updates but click to remind me
later, let me invoke and install from that pending reminder when I
want. If the process requires waiting for Ubuntu to prepare an
additional update, please drop that requirement.
This event happened in late May. I saw the list of packages but don't
know which one applies. No crash occurred on my platform. The dialog
from ubuntu-bug had nothing relevant to an update (I understand
upgrade is different), so I selected Other, resulting in nothing
informative. ubuntu-bug --help didn't lead to an answer, either.
