Title:
Software Center doesn't save settings on Saucy
Status in Ubuntu Software Center:
In Progress
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Certain settings will be reset for some odd reason whenever I quit the
Software Center. Here's the main two areas where I notice this issue, both
accessible under "View" in the global menu:
1) Attempting to toggle on or off the option "New Applications in Launcher",
regardless of what it's set to upon an exit and repopening of the Software
Center it's set back to the default option of a check, meaning it will show new
applications in the launcher regardless of what the user has set it to.
2) Attempting to select the option "Turn on Recommendations..." will also
alow me to turn them on, but upon closing and opening up the Software Center
again, I have to re-enable recommendations if I want them
Running Ubuntu 13.10 Suacy with all the latest updates, with the
latest version of the Software Center (13.10). Yes I have proposed
updates enabled, but this may have happened at first with the original
package in Saucy as well. Regardless, these are official packages and
this is a usability bug in need of a fix. The settings don't save (I
remember they saved in previous Ubuntu versions) but they no longer
do. Obviously, these settings should save somewhere for a consistent
experience.
