Dom0 update log visible during update

[mileswentdown]

Qubes OS release

Qubes R4.2.2

Brief summary

After two months of not updating dom0 I updated dom0 despite the update utility stating that there is no available update. While I was doing that I noticed that the update log was visible during the update happening (which is not the expected behavior).

Steps to reproduce

• Skip update check (the system should state that there are no updates available despite that being false).
• Try to update dom0 anyways.
• Check the log during the update process for unusual behavior (specified later).

Expected behavior

Dom0 update log absolutely silent during the update except for the usual message "Dom0 does not support in-progress update information [...]"

Actual behavior

Update log visible in real time during the update.

This issue has been closed as a "duplicate." This means that another issue exists that is very similar to or subsumes this one. If any useful information on this issue is not already present on the other issue, please add it in a comment on the other issue. Here are some common cases of duplicate issues:

• The other issue is closed. The other issue being closed does not prevent this issue from duplicating it. We will examine the closed issue and, if appropriate, reopen it.
• The other issue is for a different Qubes release. We usually maintain only one issue for all affected Qubes releases.
• The other issue is very old. The mere age of an issue is not, by itself, a relevant factor when determining duplicates.

By default, the newer issue will be closed in favor of the older issue. However, we make exceptions when we determine that it would be significantly more useful to keep the newer issue open instead of the older one.
