I'm going to work on a detailed design for this, but here's what I'm thinking so far:
If Software Updater does an automatic check, OR you launch it manually, OR you launch Ubuntu Software Center, when sources.list is invalid, then: a. aptdaemon puts up a dialog explaining the problem and illustrating how it can fix it for you b. if you choose to fix it, an error tracker dialog appears giving you the option to report the error c. the program launches as normal. Perhaps (a) and (b) should be around the other way. Or perhaps they can be merged by introducing a new variation of the RecoverableError dialog. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886273 Title: Poor handling of broken sources.list files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/886273/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
