Thanks for your time to help fixing this! You wrote: "With and without your patch Synaptic crashes". In all comments to this bug since 2 years nobody ever wrote about crashes. So I guess you found a new bug. Please open a new bug report to enter your findings about the crashes. (Some suspects for crashes like this: compiz, kernel mode setting or new desktop themes. Although on my ATI- based HP laptop this all works stable in Lucid beta 1 :-)
I checked out you bzr branch, built and tested it and it works as expected. I used a Live-CD of Lucid beta 1, installed all build-deps and gnome-common. Please test my patch again when your Synaptic does not crash anymore without it. ** Tags added: patch ** Tags removed: patch-needswork -- synaptic won't remember certain preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154349 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
