Package: synaptic Version: 0.81.2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I was doing a installation of some packages to my debian system. synaptic's progress stopped. I thought it was hung. On a whim, I pressed the "details" button. The details window showed that the package installation process was trying to ask an installation question. I answered that question and installation proceeded to completion. Joe Sixpack does not know that "details" can hide a question that synaptic installation process is waiting to an answer for. He thinks synaptic is hung. Details should pop up and stay up everytime there is a question to be answered. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages synaptic depends on: ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.13-1 ii libapt-inst1.5 1.0.3 ii libapt-pkg4.12 1.0.3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.12.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-3 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.16-2 ii libcairo2 1.12.16-2 ii libept1.4.12 1.0.12 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.0-7 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.30.7-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.40.0-3 ii libgtk-3-0 3.12.2-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.0-7 ii libvte-2.90-9 1:0.36.2-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-2 ii libxapian22 1.2.17-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.2-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1 Versions of packages synaptic recommends: ii gksu 2.0.2-6 ii libgtk2-perl 2:1.2491-4 ii policykit-1 0.105-6 ii rarian-compat 0.8.1-5 Versions of packages synaptic suggests: ii apt-xapian-index 0.46 pn deborphan <none> pn dwww <none> ii menu 2.1.47 ii software-properties-gtk 0.92.25debian1 ii tasksel 3.20 -- no debconf information -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelli...@blackpatchpanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117 --- "Encryption works.
