Public bug reported:
1. Open "System Settings" > "Updates" to check for updates.
What happens: Progress is shown with an indeterminate spinner.
What should happen: Ideally, progress is shown in a determinate way.
Barry Warsaw in bug 1272313: "Checking for whether an update is available is a
complicated, multi-step
process. For example, there are potentially 4 gpg keyring files that must be
present, but only one that is shipped with the image, so the 'check for update
available' process must be able to backtrack and download any missing keys."
So the first step in fixing this is to tabulate the steps involved:
| Step | Probability the step is required at all | Distribution of time
it takes |
Then assign to me for design.
