[Bug 2041831] Re: [SRU] Update-manager crashes when packages are de-selected with the mouse

[Nathan Teodosio]

Thanks for testing Tormod, unfortunately I have to reset the
verification status, as Robie in #19 requested a basic test plan to be
included.

** Description changed:

  Impact
  ------
  
  Update-manager crashes if packages are deselected with a mouse click. If
  the keyboard spacebar is used instead (with focus on the package name or
  whole line, not the checkbox) it doesn't crash.
  
  Test case
  ---------
  
  0. Install the updated update-manager package.
  1. Start update-manager.
  2. Click various check boxes in the package list (i.e. unselect some packages with the mouse).
  
  Update-manager should not crash.
  
+ Run the basic test plan in
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TestPlans/UpdateManager too.
+ 
  Regression potential
  --------------------
  
  The user interface could become unresponsive.
  
  ---------
  
  The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding update-manager.  This problem was most recently seen with package version 1:23.10.1, the problem page at https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/dff72cd5c27c916b2d887a56311ba08ef15b0dff contains more details, including versions of packages affected, stacktrace or traceback, and individual crash reports.
