Mainly because it isn't that convenient to run that all the time. You are absolutely right, I could do sudo snap refresh each time I booted up, but my wife would feel somewhat less comfortable with doing that instead of simply clicking on the alert when Discover Update prompts her. Also, I do think you *are* missing the point a bit. Many users aren't developers or system administrators, so how do they know they have to do this? I only found out by accident. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2020-05-05 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
