(An alert should not be used, + because the error might occur while “Updates” is not the current screen + or “System Settings” isn’t even the focused app.) Below this should be + text describing the particular error, for example..." + Not to be confused with bug 1215901, about the text of specific errors. ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Assignee: Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1282499 Title: Error during updates is presented unattractively To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1282499/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
