[Desktop-packages] [Bug 883574] Re: Install button misbehaves in ubuntu software center
1. The bug is opened against 11.10; Precise is 12.04. 2. Do you use Gnome Classic? 3. In Precise, I have just seen the same misfeature with the reinstall button: you click reinstall, THEN enter password (the button gets ungrayed), THEN it is remains ungrayed for some time, then it turns into a progress bar, then in becomes ungrayed reinstall again. ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883574 Title: Install button misbehaves in ubuntu software center Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: 1.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 883574] Re: Install button misbehaves in ubuntu software center
Hi mlg7, and thanks for your report. I cannot reproduce this issue using the latest version of Ubuntu Software Center in Precise, version 5.2.2.2. The Install button is correctly grayed out after clicking it when installing a deb file. Would you please retry with this latest version and let us know if it's working for you now? Many thanks for your help! ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883574 Title: Install button misbehaves in ubuntu software center Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 1.
