Title:
Install button still shows after Installing app
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
[What Happens]
==============
Installing
----------
1. Open the Software app (GNOME Software). Search for clocks.
2. Click Install next to Clocks (Bijiben is the package name for the GNOME
Notes app).
3. The Install button becomes insensitive and changes to Installing...
4. The Install button becomes sensitive again and changes back to Install (it
should have changed to Remove)
5. If you click the Clocks row (still in the All page), the Clocks info page
opens with an Install button (it should have a Launch button and a Remove
button).
6. If you switch to the Installed page, Clocks correctly shows up with a
Remove button.
7. If you click the Clocks row in the Installed page, the Clocks info page
correctly opens with a Launch button and a Remove button.
8. Close the Software app then reopen it. Same results as #4-7 above.
9. $ pkill gnome-software
10. Open the Software app. Now Clocks shows up correctly in the All page with
a Remove button and the Clocks info page correctly includes the Launch and
Remove buttons but not the Install button.
Removing
--------
11. Click the Remove button to uninstall Clocks.
12. The Remove button becomes insensitive again and changes to Removing...
12. We basically get the same broken results as before. In the All page, the
Clocks row shows Remove still. Clicking the Clocks row shows the Info page with
Launch and Remove.
One change is that in the Installed page, Clocks shows up twice, once with an
Install button, once with a Remove button.
Completely stopping the gnome-software process (via logging out or the pkill
trick mentioned in #9) is necessary for the Software app to correctly register
Clocks as being removed.
I was unable to reproduce this bug with Fedora 24.
[Original Bug Report]
=====================
Problems & Actions:
- I noticed that after removing an app, the status button of the App do not
correctly reflect the updated status. Neither is the removed App removed from
the Installed tab immediately after a removal.
- I notice a lot failures and warnings in my syslog within just 10 mins of
using gnome-software.
- I hope these info can help figure out the issues and provide a bug fix soon.
(removed warnings that don't seem relevant)
