I'm not sure this issue is actually fixed. I just encountered the same problem on a clean install of 9.10 (Karmic).
I couldn't locate a package called "software-properties", but "apt-cache showpkg software-properties-gtk" shows version 0.75.4 installed. Since the version is close to that cited in the Launchpad Janitor post, I'm guessing this is the same package that was supposed to fix the issue. PLEASE NOTE: This behavior is observed when "Software Sources" is launched directly from the System / Administration menu, and not from the "Settings..." button within Update Manager. The Software Sources window becomes grayed out and inactive after the window for choosing the server is closed. Trying to close the grayed out Software Sources window results in a new prompt to reload the package list. I've actually seen this behavior consistently across several previous versions of Ubuntu, so when I ran into it today I thought I'd better report it if nobody else had. Since this bug report already accurately describes the symptoms, can it be re-opened? -- Software sources window becomes inactive after refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357617 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
