Title:
Synaptic Other Software tab jumps/scrolls to top when a repository
check box is clicked
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in synaptic package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In Synaptic's Software & Updates window, clicking the check box for a
repository in the Other Software tab causes the list of repositories
to jump to the top of the list. The scroll position of the list is
instantly lost, disorienting the user, and hiding the fact that the
click did anything, until the user scrolls back down to find the item
that was clicked.
This is only noticeable when there are enough repositories in the list
to require scrolling.
Finding the clicked repository again is especially difficult when all of them
look nearly identical, as is the case when they're all PPAs with no comment
string. (Every item in the list is just a long URL that looks very similar to
the others.) It's even worse when there are both package and
source URLs for each repo.
This is especially problematic when updating the repo URLs after a
distribution upgrade, because it's a very repetitive task, and the
scroll window jumps and loses its place every single time.
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
synaptic 0.81.1ubuntu1 amd64
