After running updater and installing updated software.
Icon for new update stays in the tray, clicking on it still propose to update x packages then updater says everything is up-to-date.
Icon should disappear after updates.

Started seeing the same bug after upgrading to 18.04 LTS. It only happens when I have some "security" update(s), indicated by red icon color. After the updates are installed, the notification icon color changes to blue (indicating normal non-security updates) but icon stays in the tray, even though there is no further updates available. This notification icon can only be cleared by leaving the KDE session.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Although the bug seems to have been fixed in Kubuntu 16.04 it has been re-reported in Kubuntu 18.04 but...

Kubuntu 18.04 (bionic) reached end of support in April 2023.

I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Incomplete' as it's not seen any activity for some time. If this is still an issue when using a currently maintained release of Ubuntu then please let us know which one(s).

Bug report did not expire due to bug watch
Two reports confirm issue fixed in Kubuntu 16.04
Single issue with Kubuntu 18.04 which is no longer supported
Muon now removed from the current development release
So will mark as issue fixed (in currently supported releases)
