Description
Seen while testing the online updater for 10.10.0
- Setup a local online updater, offering
ownCloud 10.10.0for the stable channel , and 'ownCloud daily' for daily channel. - start owncloud 10.9.1
- login as admin, notifications appear as expected:

- switch the channel from 'stable' (default) to 'daily'. -> A green message says 'Updated channel'

- But the advertised version is still
ownCloud 10.10.0.
Expected behaviour:
- the version from the daily channel
ownCloud dailyshould be shown.
Manual workaround:
- logout the admin user, login again.
- now the correct string is shown:

Research direction
Start with the online updater channel-switch flow and the notification refresh triggered after changing the channel. Reproduce the stable-to-daily steps and compare the notification before and after logging out and back in. Done means the daily-channel version appears immediately after switching channels, without requiring a new login.
