[Bug 701866] Re: Cannot open software sources dialogue via USC

 

Hi! Thanks for your bug report. This happens when software-center
launches software-properties-gtk (aka Software Sources) - if software-
properties-gtk crashes on launch then s-c will detect that s-p-g has
been closed and will trigger a cache update. As it has taken us a while
to get to this bug, it is likely that this has been fixed in s-p-g. If
you are still encountering this issue in the latest development release
of Ubuntu, please do open a bug report against s-p-g with the details
provided by the crash reporter. Sorry for the delay!

Title:
  Cannot open software sources dialogue via USC

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  For the past few weeks I have been experiences intermittent
  difficulties when trying to access the software sources dialogue via
  the software centre. Frequently clicking on the software sources entry
  in software centres edit menu will trigger a cache update rather than
  open the software sources dialogue (the default behaviour). Usually
  this resolves itself, in that several repeated attempts will launch
  the dialogue (patience is key). However, today that doesn't seem to be
  the case; I've made 16 attempts thus far, each resulting in a cache
  update and no software sources dialogue.

  I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10 (x86-64) with the stable version of
  Ubuntu Software Centre. If there is any further information I can
  provide, I would be glad to do so.

  Kind Regards,

  Lee Hyde.
