I can confirm synaptic going non-responsive on karmic (synaptic 0.62.7ubuntu6) Steps to reproduce: System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager Click on the unlabelled column ("Supported") between "Status" and "Package." Synaptic immediately goes non-responsive and will not redraw.
Clicking on the "close" button and choosing "Force quit" kills the window, but the process is still running. sudo killall synaptic (do not need -9) will kill synaptic and it can be restarted again, operating normally. ** Changed in: synaptic (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- KARMIC - Selecting the Ubuntu column dims then hangs Synaptic. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483177 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
