Thank you, Dave, for sponsoring and for the thoughtful improvement suggestions. You seem to have taken care of it all (yes I think for Bionic and Xenial the process is special), and I edited the regression section, but let me know if it is still lacking in any form.
** Description changed: [Impact] If one deselects all packages, the "Install Now" button disappears, which makes sense (on another note it would make even more sense if it was simply grayed out). However when one or more packages are then re- selected, the button won't ever reappear, and update-manager must be restarted in order to upgrade any packages. [Test case] For each affected $series: * If 'apt list --upgradable' is empty, downgrade any one package in your system. * sudo ua detach --assume-yes * sudo apt install hello * update-manager * Verify at least one update is available, and the hello package is unavailable under the 'Ubuntu Pro security updates' section * De-select all available packages * Verify the 'install now' button disappears * Select at least one available package * Verify the 'install now' button is still absent * Close the window * Enable proposed (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed) * sudo apt install -t $series-proposed update-manager * update-manager * Verify at least one update is available, and the hello package is unavailable under the 'Ubuntu Pro security updates' section * De-select all available packages * Verify the 'install now' button disappears * Select at least one available package * Verify the 'install now' button is now visible again [Where things could go wrong] Things could go wrong with the 'install now' button. It should be visible when there is any available package selected and not visible - when there is none selected. + when there is none selected. So a regression could appear as the user no + longer being able install packages via this program, or being able to + click "install now" with no packages selected to be installed. In any + case, since this program is essentially a wrapper of Apt, all the + package management functionality, including upgrading, would still be + avaialable through Apt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2068805 Title: [SRU] "Install Now" button disappears for good if all packages unselected and Ubuntu Pro packages are shown but unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/2068805/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
