Title:
Since revision 446.1.3, Zenity backend is broken
Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback:
Fix Released
Status in indicator-session package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in indicator-session source package in Trusty:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Currently the code in zenity_question() looks like:
if (!g_spawn_check_exit_status (exit_status, &error))
confirmed = TRUE;
else
confirmed = exit_status == 0;
However !g_spawn_check_exit_status() call is mostly equivalent to
"exit_status != 0". Thus, confirmed will be *always* set to TRUE, even
if the user cancelled the dialog.
I have prepared a branch to fix this.
== Impact ==
The Cancel buttons in shutdown/end session dialogs are not working, and do the same as "OK" buttons. This may lead to data loss due to unsaved documents/etc.
== Test Case ==
* Log in to GNOME Flashback session.
* Select "Shutdown" from indicator-session menu.
* In the popped up dialog select "Cancel".
Expected result: the dialog will close, the machine won't shut down.
== Development / Stable Fix ==
Please see the attached branches.
== Regression Potential ==
The fix is part of 14.10 release and was confirmed to work fine. So no regression potential.
