Title:
SW Center UI stuck on spinning wheel
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Several events led me to a failed installation in the software center
(bug 1000262 has some details). SW center was showing the screen for
the app I tried to purchase/install (Command & Conquer Tiberium
Alliances). From that screen I clicked "Reinstall Previous Purchases"
from the FIle menu. I was presented with a screen asking me to login
to Launchpad. I chose cancel instead of logging in to LP.
Expected results:
I expected to see either the screen I was looking at (the app I was looking
at previously) or the home page of SW center
Actual results:
The main SW center UI was cleared out, no longer showing the screen for my
app. Instead it's a blank, grey panel with the large spinning 'wait' cursor
(see attached screenshot). It's stuck in this state, and has been for a couple
minutes. The app clearly isn't going to do anything on its own, despite the
wait cursor.
To get SW center out of this state I clicked the "Installed" button then the
"All Software" button. The UI is now back to normal. The UI was never blocked,
it just wasn't doing anything.
