[Bug 1801863] Re: snap backend install transaction progress stalls at 100%

[Rik Mills]

** Description changed:

  Version: 5.13.5-1ubuntu6
  Cosmic and Disco
  
  On installing a snap, the transaction in the UI appears to complete and
  reach 100% in the progress of the 'tasks', but at that point simply
  stays with that status. The UI then does not return to show installed or
  allow to be closed. Force closing the UI and starting again show that
  the snap installed ok.
  
  This seems to have been addressed in the 5.14 upstream branch (5.13 is
  now not getting updates)
  
  https://cgit.kde.org/discover.git/commit/?h=Plasma/5.14&id=727a8590044048532c4f1a5ed1961536bd61845d
  
  A testing build with this patch can be found in:

+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ * While affected snaps do install, the end user is left with the
+ impression that the process may not have completed and has to force
+ close discover as it refuses to do so normally saying that tasks still
+ need to be completed.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Reproduce by installing Opera or Spotify snaps via the UI (others may
+ also be affected). The UI will reach reporting 100% progress, but will
+ not return to normal status.
+ 
+  * Test by rolling back VM snapshot or purge installed snaps. Repeat
+ installs with updated discover packages. The installs should complete
+ and the pending task progress indicator goes away.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * Small as only the snap backend code is affected, but testes should
+ confirm that installation of no snap packages and updates install ok as
+ before.
