Eupgrade is_new_version_available always will return false about lime-packages HOT 3 CLOSED

Yes, it is indeed a bug. I dont remember exactly why now, I believe that when I wrote the code the implementation was to not cache by default. But I think that the we rush to make a release and the lime app was not providing the cached_only property and it was asking for this data on app load so it was very slow to start so I hardcoded the value in eupgrade.lua and forgot about it. And as upgrades we were doing in communities were rolling slowly nee releases it was "ok" to load new firmware info only once per boot.

I think it is better to have cached_only default to false. Or to change the scripts in bin/

from lime-packages.

I created a PR. What do you think to add a function to get the cached only new version available? Could be useful? Probably the refactor to adapt limeapp will be to much bigger compared to the functionality added.

I mean, if we would like to take advantage to call cache only or not, we have to refactor a lot of parts maybe.

The fix originally included in #1070 has been merged in #1101.
I will close this issue but feel free to re-open it if there is more to discuss.
