Description Michael Catanzaro 2014-02-07 14:41:49 UTC 
* Click on the Install Updates button in the Details panel (when updates are available)
* If you're using Fedora 20, the button is broken and this won't work, but if you built a newer version of gnome-control-center then it should launch GNOME Software if Software is installed
* If Software has not finished preparing an update, it will claim that no updates are available, contradicting the Details panel

For 3.10 I think we should just hide the button, but in 3.12 it'd be best to refresh all updates, either with a command line argument to Software, or maybe using D-Bus.

I think we really want the updates button and gnome-software to show the same information.
With the way things currently stand, that means the updates button s hould only show up if we find a prepared update - ie a file named /var/lib/PackageKit/prepared-update
Comment 2 Michael Catanzaro 2014-02-07 22:29:35 UTC 
That's better, and also easier than either of my suggestions
