Craig, I appreciate that this is aggravating, but a bug tracker is not a support system. It is a system for helping a finite number of developers make best use of their time. A bug that -- while annoying -- is relatively minor, has a workaround, and probably was fixed three years ago, probably will not attract the attention of many developers.
There are several ways you could attract a developer's attention to it. One would be to pay them to work on it. Another would be to raise the issue anywhere *except* this bug report, since everyone subscribed to this bug report already knows that the issue exists. Another would be to do some of the work yourself, to make the rest of the work easier. Assuming that the bug is already fixed in 12.10 and later, the goal here would be a stable release update (SRU) for 12.04 that includes the fix. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates> The first step would be to identify the particular change between 12.04 and 12.10 that fixed the bug, so that a new version containing only that fix can be issued. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414181 Title: "Install Updates" button does nothing when Update Manager opened by itself To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/414181/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
