Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 285411
install progress dialog writing "updating" even when installing a new package
Last modified: 2008-05-28 15:11:53 EDT
Description of problem: When pirut install a new package or updates already installed packages it displays "updating <packagename>" under the progress bar. It should write "installing" for new packages rather than "updating". How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. install a new (uninstalled) package with pirut 2. watch install progress dialog Actual results: 2. displays "updating <package>" Expected results: 2. displays "installing <package>" Additional info: if it is hard to differentiate then IMHO it might be better to use "installing" instead of "updating" for both cases.
Will fix once F8 goes out (string frozen now)
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported during the development of Fedora 8. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are changing the version of this bug to '8'. If this bug still exists in rawhide, please change the version back to rawhide. (If you're unable to change the bug's version, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help and we apologize for the interruption. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
This isn't going to get changed at this point as pirut is pretty much entirely EOL'd and only getting critical fixes for older releases. In Fedora 9 and later, any such concerns can be filed against PackageKit/gnome-packagekit.
