" A patched version of aptdaemon for Ubuntu 16.10 has been built in the following PPA:
* https://launchpad.net/~flexiondotorg/+archive/ubuntu/sru I've tested the patched aptdaemon alongside the patched update-manager from yakkety-proposed. Together they address the issue raised. " Yes. I just ran Software Updater, and I can see both download- and install- detail. The detail for install was only about ten lines when I maximized it. (See new attached screenshot.) It is possible that since I only managed to maximize the window AFTER the install started, that it took the install-detail height from the height of the download-detail. I might have expected the height to change after I maximized, though.... Comments: Unlike with synaptic and gdebi, there is no option to close/not close the download/install window after completion. There also is no ability to do cut-and-paste from the detail terminal (i.e. one can select, but ctrl-C, and -V have no effect, and there is no context-menu with COPY and SELECT_ALL) that I have seen in at least one of the above package programs). This makes it impossible to copy failed install info, for use in bug reports. Is anyone aware of a config file for update-manager? I would like to be able to say: Use Maximized Install Window: True Always Show Detail: True etc. Is any of this bug material, or should I just enter it as a Wish List bug? ** Attachment added: "Maximized Install Detail Window - just a few lines of screen used." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1623856/+attachment/4776112/+files/Screenshot%20from%202016-11-11%2015-09-29.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1623856 Title: Scrolled Windows in update-manager are too small to read To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1623856/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
