Binary package hint: software-center
If a large package (eg. Gnash) is currently in the process of being removed (the progress bar is moving) and Software Centre is closed (with the "(x)" button in the top-left); after which s-c is restarted (Applications->Ubuntu Software Centre) then:
* the old state (Gnash still installed) is shown
* no indication is given of the operations underway
Ideally the state would be synchronised to activity on the ground. |
Ubuntu Software Center 4.1.22 (and much earlier)
1. Begin removing a large package (eg. Gnash).
2. Quickly close USC, then reopen it.
3. In "All Software" or "Installed", locate the package that is being removed.
What happens:
1. A progress bar appears, showing progress of the removal.
3. The package appears without progress bar, and with the "Remove" command sensitive.
Screencast: <https://launchpadlibrarian.net/79985579/out-1.ogv>
What should happen:
3. The package appears with progress bar, with the "Remove" command insensitive.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#removing>: "The “Remove” button should be made insensitive for that item, and remain insensitive until the removal has been completed or cancelled."
Ideally the state would be synchronised to activity on the ground. |
