I'm running Ubuntu Gnome and the user experience is horrible with this bug when using the UI: "Software Updater" has "X" and "Stop" buttons: "Stop" button stays gray (inactive) during the update (what is the point of having gray Stop buttons?). It is even worse if the user (such as me) tried to change the repository, thinking there might be something wrong with that: "Software & Updates" -> "Ubuntu Software" -> "Download from:" [select your mirror] -> "Choose Server" -> "Close". Then there is the notification "The information about available software is out-of-date" -> "Reload". And the result: forever inactive window with no possibility to interfere.
I don't know how this is handled by the UI in the regular Ubuntu but this case seems to be a good test case for user interaction. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579712 Title: Refresh hangs indefinitely, appstreamcli using 100% CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/1579712/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
