You're welcome. I changed the URL in the original bugpost to the new URL you've created. About the confirmed state, I'm not sure if this dialog is still in Synaptic, I haven't seen it for a long time, and don't use Synaptic that often anymore.
** Description changed: Today I found one of Gnome's worst dialogs. It is contained in Synaptic, a screenshot can be found here: - http://lnet.nl/screenshots/linux/ubuntu_dapper_drake/bugs/synaptic_yes_no_dialog.png + http://launchpadlibrarian.net/40377945/synaptic_yes_no_dialog.png 1) It has a title called "Question". This is as useless as putting the word "Book" on the cover of a book. 2) The question can be answered with Yes or No, which is not the Gnome way (like the HIG tells us). Now the user needs to read all the text in the dialog. It is better to use verbs on the buttons. I suggest the following (although I am not sure about the Cancel button yet): Title: "Some packages could not be retrieved" Buttons: "Cancel" (instead of No), "Ignore" (instead of Yes) Keep up all the good work. Thanks. + + EDIT: Changed the screenshot URL to the new address created by Jean- + Baptiste Lallement. -- Sub-optimal dialog when package retrieval fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32367 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
