Update notifier: Install updates disabled
#1
[SOLVED]
Hi!
I like very much the Update notifier!
Problem is the "Install Updates" option, is disabled (grayed). Why is that so?

The program/script  /usr/bin/lite-updates works fine for me (I put it on a button) so as I see, all it takes is to put the command on the menu item.
What could possibly happen if this would be enabled?
Worst case scenario is it does nothing.
Thanks in advance!

[Later edit, problem [SOLVED], 23-Jul-2020]
Problem consisted in a bad predefined binary for updates installer.
After installation, we need to:
  1. Left click the tray icon;
  2. Click the "Preferences..." menu item;
  3. In the dialog, insert the following command: [b]
Code:
/usr/bin/lite-updates

Now it works flawlessly.
It has a little lag after you change the setting but in the end, it works. Same lag appears after an update, but in some 15 - 30 seconds (on Dell Precision T1700) it will update. The lag possibly depends on the machine's resources as it is a matter of internal OS messaging queue.

Hope this will help if anyone encounters the same problem. Smile
