Public bug reported: Binary package hint: checkbox
The System Testing app "checkbox-gtk" prompts for the administrators password just after clicking next. However, if at this stage you click "cancel" rather than entering a password, checkbox fails to detect this and runs forever showing the main window along with the "Gathering information from your system..." window. Unfortunately, at this stage, the only ways to stop this app are: - kill - logout / reboot Additionally, there is no "Cancel" button when the app first starts (only options are "next" or closing the window manually).
