Enabling repo through dialog half-functional

[Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen]

Without uni/multiverse enabled GAI pops up a dialog asking whether I'd like to
enable these repos, when I click a grayed out application. Really cool feature,
but unfortuneatly nothing happens when I click OK... (the dialog just disappears)

[Michael Vogt (mvo)]

Can you please run the application on a terminal and paste the output (if any)
when the problem appears (on a terminal: sudo gnome-app-install)

Can you attach your /etc/apt/sources.list file? Thanks.

[Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen (kamstrup)]

Created an attachment (id=3385)
My /etc/apt/sources.list as requested

[Niran Babalola (niran)]

Fixed in the development version. Thanks for the report and the extra
information you provided.

[Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen (kamstrup)]

This seems to be working now. There's only one little thing... Assume in the
following that I don't have uni/multiverse enabled:

I click Acrobat Reader. Get the dialog asking me if I want to enable multiverse.
Click OK, and multiverse is anabled. All good, except that Acrobat Reader is not
selected for install and the info field on the left still tells me that I cannot
install Acrobat Reader. If I did not know what was going on I'd pobably be upset
by this. I find Acrobat Reader in the tree again and install it without problems.

It's really close to being a perfectly smooth ride now :-) Cheers

Thanks for this additional information.

That's indeed a pretty anoying behaviour that needs to be fixed before final. It
will involve saving the last menu position and replaying the list of already
marked changes after a cache reload.

[Niran Babalola (niran)]

This is now fixed in my branch.

[Michael Vogt (mvo)]

This is fixed with the upload of gnome-app-install_0+20050908_source. Please
reopen if you still see this problem.
