[Bug 1962346] Re: Ubuntu reboots instead of powering off if a software updates exists

[Julian Andres Klode]

Though on the other hand I don't really want flavours to do offline
upgrades, but I don't think we have a clear-cut policy on that. Either
way, removing the feature inside PackageKit might break some flavours,
so seeing as we are past feature freeze, fixing that in the frontend
would be less invasive.

  Ubuntu reboots instead of powering off if a software updates exists

Bug description:
  When I want to turn off a computer, I got a checkbox "Install deferred
  updates" (see screenshot, I'm not sure if my back-translation is
  correct).

  If the checkbox is checked, Ubuntu box reboots instead of powering
  off. It is not "rebopot to install updates". It just reboots to
  desktop again. If I uncheck the box, it powers off normally.
