updates make no sense for live systems

Dear Colleagues,


you are aware a live sys has, by default, no persistence, so any updates 
will be erased on every fresh reboot.

no need for updates for a live sys:

gnome software downloads for a live sys I use about 700 mb on each and 
every reboot to delete it and download it again on next fresh boot.

please be considerate, I removed gnome-software completely with a 
compile time hook, as provided by your live docs, just to stop that 
useless for live, crazy updater.


please be advised, internet traffic can be in various circumstances way 
to costly to afford such useless systematic downloads

sincerely,

mihai
