Description Doncho Gunchev 2007-10-03 17:43:04 UTC

Description of problem:
If I search for empty string in pirut it hangs forever (it does not even 
redraws) and eats the whole CPU.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pirut-1.3.22-1.fc8

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start pirut
2. go to the search tab
3. hit search without entering single letter to search for

Actual results:
Hangs and eats the CPU forever, kill -9 is needed.

Expected results:
should just list all available/installed or both packages.

Additional info:
The previous version has this problem too. Here's the console output I got:
--- cut ---
Loading "refresh-updatesd" plugin
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
--- cut ---
I don't have 3 repos enabled, just devel?!?

Thanks, fixed in CVS

Wow, that was *FAST*! Thank you!
Will test the new one when ready :-)

Comment 3 Doncho Gunchev 2007-10-15 00:29:43 UTC

I think this one is fixed. I used to search for '' (empty string) to get a 
list of all packages, now I have to search for '*' though (single star). I 
don't know if anyone else used this empty search 'feature', but figuring out a 
single star does the trick is easy...

Can this be related to bug # 240606?
