[Bug 1234703] Re: Checking for new updates puts the service out of order

[Barry Warsaw]

Hmm, I tried this with s-i 1.8:

Did an update, which worked fine, rebooted.  Did another update via the
u/i while tailing the log file.  Said I was already up-to-date and gave
me a Retry button.  Multiple clicks on Retry do nothing (and nothing in
the log file).

So I kill the system-image-dbus process, edit /etc/system-
image/client.ini to bump debugging up to debug level, and try clicking
on Retry again, again tailing the log file.  Clicking on Retry does
nothing - no activity in the log file.

Then I click on Back and on Updates again, and this time I do see that
it checks for another update.  Of course there isn't one so I again get
the "no software update available" message and a Retry button.
Clicking Retry produces no activity in the system-image-dbus log file.

*Without* killing system-image-dbus, I hit Back and then Updates again.
Now I get activity in the log file and again it accurately tells me
(both in the u/i and log file) that I am up-to-date.

So it seems to me that the Retry button is not sending another
CheckForUpdate.  Is that possible?

  Invalid

Bug description:
  Using the current touch image (78)

  - open system-settings
  - click on updates

  - > you get a "there is no available update" label with a "check
  again" button

  - click on the button

  -> the label vanishs, the button comes back and nothing elses happen,
  click on "check again" as no effect

  - close system settings (or just go back to the main screen) and open
  it/go back to update screen

  -> there is a "checking for updates" spinner that never ends spinning,
  it's like the service was in a buggy state and not responding

  
  You need to reboot the device to get back to a working state
