Snap store does not notify snap automatic upgrades

[Francois Thirioux]

Today snap-store snap was upgraded to v385 automatically. But I got no notification. The notify-on-upgrade switch is obviously ON in snap-store.

Ubuntu 20.04 up to date, gnome-session.

*notify-on-upgrade*, not notification :-) !!

I'm not sure I understand which "notify-on-upgrade" switch you're referring to, could you clarify where you're setting this please? I have a suspicion this setting may be specific to Debian package updates and not snaps.

[Francois Thirioux (fthx)]

Well, I do not use anymore the snap store, I prefer using the website+terminal. (Is it possible to improve the search feature in this website ? It's very very basic at the moment. End of off-topic !)

When I wrote this BR, there was a switch. Last time (1 month ?) I tried the Snap Store snap, the switch had disappeared. So I cannot help you and maybe it would be good to close this bug ?

[Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson)]

Sorry about that Francois, I can only assume the feature has been since removed - maybe as it didn't work :P

Thanks for the update anyway!

Marking invalid.
