** Summary changed:

- Crash on sun-java6-plugin install if close before dialog appears
+ Endless stream of repair dialogs after declining sun-java6-plugin EULA

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: software-center
+ software-center trunk r2269, Ubuntu 11.10 beta 1
  
  Installer crashes when installing sun-java6-plugin if software center is
  closed before displaying the license dialog.
  
- The steps to reproduce this are fairly simple:
  1 Enable partner sources.
  2 Start the installation of sun-java6-plugin
- 3 Close software center before the download finishes.
- 4 Sit and wait for the fireworks in the upper right part of the screen.
+ 3. When the "Configuring sun-java6-jre" dialog appears, click "Forward" 
*without* first clicking "Do you accept the DLJ license terms?".
+ 
+ What happens:
+ * Two error dialogs appear.
+ * An "Items cannot be installed or removed until the package catalogue is 
repaired" dialog appears.
+ * Another "Items cannot be installed or removed until the package catalogue 
is repaired" dialog appears on top of it.
+ * For as long as you click "Repair" in these dialogs, they keep appearing.
+ 
+ What should happen:
+ * Either zero or one error dialog appears.
+ * The package is not left part-installed in the first place.
