| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: WRT firefox, I get popups which say: "Pending update of firefox snap close app to avoid disruptions (* days left)" where * is from 14 to 1 day | 21:57 |
|---|---|---|
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: Yeah. Only way around that is to close firefox, open a terminal, run "sudo snap refresh" and let that run. | 21:58 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: ok, so I close FF but if I reopen it I get the same box... | 21:58 |
| OvenWerks | Thats pretty poor. | 21:58 |
| Eickmeyer | Yeah. The desktop team is aware of the poor UX and is working towards a solution. | 21:58 |
| OvenWerks | if I let it run out, there is no disruption | 21:59 |
| Eickmeyer | If you let it run out, snapd is supposed to force-quit and automatically refresh. | 21:59 |
| OvenWerks | that has not been the case so far | 21:59 |
| Eickmeyer | Unfortunately, then, you're not getting Firefox updates. | 22:02 |
| Eickmeyer | And might not be getting snapd updates because snapd, itself, is a snap. | 22:02 |
| OvenWerks | snap is silly... | 22:02 |
| Eickmeyer | Still work-in-progress, but "good enough" I guess. | 22:03 |
| OvenWerks | so doing a sw update with Discover doesn't hit snap hard? | 22:04 |
| OvenWerks | (hard enough) | 22:05 |
| OvenWerks | Is there a bug I can add this bug affects me too? | 22:07 |
| Eickmeyer | Correct. Discover doesn't do "snap refresh" unlike Ubuntu's upgrade tool, which refreshes snaps. | 22:27 |
| Eickmeyer | RE: bug, idk. | 22:27 |
| Eickmeyer | Might be able to find one. | 22:27 |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: Just checking in #snappy, ogra makes a mention to someone just this morning that the method I mentioned is the only workaround at the moment, but they're hard at work fixing the problem. | 22:29 |
| OvenWerks | I'll leave it then. | 22:29 |
