No update notification in the last Linux unstable version I was using?

Post by Lunokhod » 2019-05-14, 12:50

I was using this version downloaded on 27th March:
$ sha256sum 2019-03-27-palemoon-unstable-latest.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
bf117095368573cd6b415357ae350255ee0e5419454cd50bfc841e6e8102ba4f 2019-03-27-palemoon-unstable-latest.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

But I didn't get any update available notifications, unless I somehow forgot about them, and when I just checked if updates were available under the Help dropdown list, it kept checking for updates until I got bored and hit cancel, so I checked the sha sums on the download page instead.
Sorry for missing some updated versions! I don't think the stable PM version is affected by this.

It worked in this version, I got a notification and installed it. I think I read something somewhere about updater problems, but as I download and unpack it I hadn't considered the other implications. ;)
