So now that we have whoopsie, should I be abusing whoosie with "quit-at- step-3" crashes ? =) ** No longer affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu Oneiric) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419194 Title: We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/419194/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 419194] Re: We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations
Sounds reasonable to me; just be careful to avoid blocking in the case where the network connection is somehow broken (e.g. throws away outgoing packets but doesn't reject them). Of course the "No changes have been made to this computer" text should be conditional on that actually being the case; some thought should be given to what we should do in the event that the user quits *after* confirming the installation summary (which of course will leave them with a broken installation, but maybe that was intentional). -- We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419194 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
[Bug 419194] Re: We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations
I think we could do better than Firefox by embedding the text field directly into the confirmation alert. So in the normal case where we are not accepting feedback, it would be a standard alert box: Are you sure you want to exit the installation? No changes have been made to this computer. ( Don’t Exit ) ( Exit ) But on the days we were accepting feedback, it would include a text field: Are you sure you want to exit the installation? No changes have been made to this computer. You can help us by telling us why you’re not going ahead: [ multi-line text field ] ( Don’t Exit ) ( Exit ) -- We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419194 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
[Bug 419194] Re: We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations
I agree. However, I'm keen to hear Colin's thoughts before we start a conversation with IS about implementing this. Matthew, do you think it would be sufficient to put a URL widget with the text "Let us know why you are quitting the install." below the dialog text and above the Cancel / Quit buttons? Or do you think we would be better off with a secondary dialog like the one Mozilla uses? ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- We have hardly any data on why people cancel installations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419194 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
