GNOME Software application automatically downloads the packages to be updated and presents a notification in the notification area. It might be a good idea to disable it avoid excessive data usage on metered internet connections.
To do it from the command-line
$ gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false
Or open dconf-editor and navigate to
org -> gnome -> software
and unselect this key
download-updates
thanks, I have changed the settings as mentioned above. Also it helps a lot by making my internet usage better.
Bro I can’t find dconf I search it on search box help
On Debian Buster, which is the latest Debian release, you should have the `dconf-editor` package (link) installed.
