That’s not quite right: it’s possible to have updates available that were already fetched before and which are currently installable without fetching additional updates (e.g. if they were fetched 1hr ago, there’s a high chance that they won’t change much). What’s more, it fetches updates from different sources and some take longer to fetch than others. It does make sense to want to cancel updates fetching if one wants to quickly upgrade a package that one already knows is available to upgrade, and in my case this issue leads me quite often to switch to aptitude or synaptic instead of using discover. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
