Status in “software-center” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I am on Ubuntu12.04 64bit updated to 2.3.2012.
The Software center crashed on the search term"python".
[TEST CASE]
This crash occurs only intermittently under certain conditions when an image
download fails. As such, this error can't be reliably reproduced. However, to
test, you can fully exercise this code by clearing the downloaded icon cache
and then reloading them per the following steps:
1. Install the version of software-center in precise-proposed.
2. With Software Center not running, execute the following in a terminal:
$ cd ~/.cache/software-center/icons
$ rm *
3. Launch Software Center and navigate to "All Software" -> "For Purchase"
4. Verify that as you scroll the list the application icons are loaded in the
view.
[REGRESSION POTENTIAL]
Very low. If a regression were to occur, it would manifest as "generic" icons
appearing in the list views or the details view.
