package plasma-pk-updates for Fedora 34? #71

Open CarlosEkisde opened 3 years ago

CarlosEkisde commented 3 years ago

plasma-pk-updates was the default upgrade applet for the KDE Spin. On Fedora 34 is going to be replaced by Discover, which supports both offline and flatpak updates. And plasma-pk-updates is going to be deprecated. The problem is that in the current status of Discover, every time you want to perform an update you need to open a full Discover instance and wait until it ends the cache refreshing. Besides, you need to edit a config file to enable online updates, or else you will need to reboot every time you want to apply a rpm update.

In comparison, plasma-pk-updates does all this process silently in the background, without disturbing the user, except for confirming the upgrade, without opening any window.. So it's a very convenient upgrade method even for experienced users. I'd like to switch back to it until Discover can fully replace it. Could you package it on this repo? Thanks in advance.

Here is package: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/zawertun/kde/build/2141702/. You can install it with this command: plasma-pk-updates-0.3.2. It won't conflict with plasma-discover, however you'll see 2 update plasmoids in the tray. Commit: 3fb3fe3075e5d4bb114d634a68339ff2b6dc6ca3.
