Description Michael Catanzaro 2014-07-02 17:49:29 UTC 
I was on the updates page viewing prepared updates, then suddenly the screen changed to say everything was up to date, even though I had just been looking at pending updates a second ago. This was printed:

(org.gnome.Software:4319): Gs-DEBUG: First hourly updates check
(org.gnome.Software:4319): Gs-DEBUG: Daily update check due
(org.gnome.Software:4319): Gs-DEBUG: Refreshing cache
(org.gnome.Software:4319): PackageKit-DEBUG: role now refresh-cache
(org.gnome.Software:4319): Gs-DEBUG: Getting updates
(org.gnome.Software:4319): PackageKit-DEBUG: role now get-updates
(org.gnome.Software:4319): Gs-DEBUG: updates-changed
...

If the updates check happens while the user is already on the updates page, it needs to skip the "all up to date" state and go straight to the refresh.

Could you please try the recently-released 3.14.1 release? If this fixes the issue please could you close this bug, or if not please comment here. Thanks!

I think it would be really hard for a user to determine if this issue is fixed, since he'd have to be looking at both the updates page and pkmon at the same time that the automatic check for updates occurs. Instead, I'd assume that if there's no new code to fix the issue, it's probably still broken.

IIRC, we now skip the background check if the updates panel is open.
