[Bug 298437] [NEW] cruft-remover-gtk freezes removing kernel images

[TylerMD]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cruft

cruft-remover-gtk freezes while removing an old kernel image if
/boot/grub/menu.lst has been modified because it waits for user input
through terminal.

What happened exactly: 
* modified /boot/grub/menu.lst by hand.
* launched gnome-control-center from a terminal.
* clicked cruft-remover.
* marked an old linux-image for removal.
* clicked cleanup.
* cruft-remover freezed after a few seconds.
* saw how the terminal was showing a list of choices about overwriting or not menu.lst.
* couldn't answer any of the choices. Chars where being written over the terminal when trying to do it, probably due gnome-control-center had the standard input, not cruft-remover.
* had to kill the app.

** Affects: cruft (Ubuntu)
