details pane shows installed files for previously viewed package when viewing uninstalled package

[Dan Keshet]

Binary package hint: adept

When you view an installed package in the details pane, it shows the installed files. If you then go back, and view more details about an uninstalled package, the "installed files" widget on the details pane still shows the installed files for the previously viewed, installed package.

This is in adept manager, v.2.1.3ubuntu17 0, kubuntu v. 8.10.

This bug could be superseded entirely by bug 82428, which proposes getting rid of the installed files widget for uninstalled packages.

FWIW, bug 82428 is closed as fixed, but this bug is still in affect in adept manager 3.0 beta7, KDE 4.7.4

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

Unfortunately, Adept has been unmaintained by its original authors for several years, and nobody has stepped up to continue its development. (Though the Muon Suite is arguably its spiritual successor) As such, Adept has been removed from releases of Kubuntu from 12.10 onwards, and no additional improvements will be made to the software.

We thank you for reporting this bug all the same, and apologize for taking so long to respond to it.
