when installing a new package through apt the dialog window remains open

[Stephan Buys]

On a machine without Winbind:

1) Start authtool
2) Select Active Directory Authentication
3) Complete the fields, click ok
4) You are prompted to install winbind
5) The program install winbind in a child window

6) The child window remains open after the package has completed installation (this could be by design)

When you close the window manually the console reports:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./authtool-gtk", line 209, in apply_changes
    self.install_packages(missing)
  File "./authtool-gtk", line 463, in install_packages
    cache.commit()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/cache.py", line 203, in commit
    res = self.installArchives(pm, installProgress)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/cache.py", line 178, in installArchives
    res = installProgress.run(pm)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/progress.py", line 219, in run
    res = self.waitChild()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/progress.py", line 206, in waitChild
    select.select([self.statusfd],[],[], self.selectTimeout)
select.error: (4, 'Interrupted system call')

Should be fixed in: https://code.launchpad.net/~stephan-impilinux/network-authentication/authtool

May require additional testing
