Description Marcin Juszkiewicz 2019-11-18 16:41:11 UTC 
Description of problem:

I installed Glances using DNF. On each start it tries to convince me to update it to latest version:

[root@puchatek hrw]# glances
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading using: pip install --upgrade glances
[root@puchatek hrw]# glances
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading using: pip install --upgrade glances
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading using: pip install --upgrade glances
[root@puchatek hrw]# 

IMHO if application comes from distribution package then it should not suggest a way to upgrade to users. This is package maintainer job to update package to latest version.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

glances-3.1.0-2.fc31.noarch

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install -y glances
2. glances


Actual results:

[root@puchatek hrw]# glances
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.

You are using Glances version 3.1.0, however version 3.1.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading using: pip install --upgrade glances
[root@puchatek hrw]# 

Expected results:

[root@puchatek hrw]# glances
[root@puchatek hrw]# glances
[root@puchatek hrw]#

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2020-02-11 17:25:58 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle.
Changing version to 32.
Comment 3 Edouard Bourguignon 2020-05-27 06:06:48 UTC 
What info do you need from me?
Comment 4 Edouard Bourguignon 2020-05-27 15:58:43 UTC 
sorry I think I will revert the patch I didn't have this outdated message since I was using a config file with a simple "check_update=false"
Comment 5 Edouard Bourguignon 2020-05-27 16:04:36 UTC 
This is not a bug, you can disable this update check easily, as the man says, you can have your config file here ~/.config/glances/glances.conf with those lines

[global]
check_update=false

to disable the check and therefore the outdated message.

I will provide a /etc/glances/glances.conf to prevent that warning. I prefer this approach rather then deleting/patching upstream code. Is that ok ?

Best regards,
Edouard
