On most systems it's maximized - still unchangeable though. Dragging the maximized window causes it to become tiny-size.

Comment 2 Richard Hughes 2008-10-24 09:33:49 UTC
Building a fix for rawhide now: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=900511

If this fails to fix the problem, please re-open this bug. Thanks.

Patch 1, 2 do not apply to gnome-packagekit.spec(0.3.8-2.fc10).

Comment 4 Will Woods 2008-10-24 20:59:54 UTC
Actually applying the patches successfully *does* gpk-application resizeable, but it still starts out maximized. 

Hitting the "unmaximize" button makes it unusably tiny. And it doesn't remember its size or position between uses, so you have to Unmaximize+ Resize-to-usable-size the window every time.

Comment 5 Richard Hughes 2008-10-27 13:11:18 UTC
I think I've fixed this in rawhide -- can you please re-open if it still does not work? Thanks.

Comment 6 Will Woods 2008-10-27 17:23:32 UTC
gnome-packagekit-0.3.9-1.fc10.i386 still exhibits the behavior from comment #4 - gpk-application *is* resizeable now, but:

a) always starts maximized, and
b) when unmaximized, becomes unusably small.

Comment 7 Matthias Clasen 2008-10-27 18:25:22 UTC

gpk-application --verbose log

The log shows gpk-application using 'small formfactor mode' on my 1920x1200 display...

Comment 8 Richard Hughes 2008-10-27 21:50:19 UTC
Ahh, I've patched 0.3.9-3 to fix the size request -- it was a stupid typo on my part, apologies. I didn't hit this as I run my setup in a double-wide screen.

This now works for me (tested on two machines) but please reopen if 0.3.9-3 doesn't completely fix things.

Comment 9 Will Woods 2008-10-27 22:12:06 UTC
Either I'm testing it wrong, or it's still not working.

[wwoods@metroid ~]$ gpk-application --version
0.3.9
[wwoods@metroid ~]$ rpm -q gnome-packagekit
gnome-packagekit-0.3.9-3.fc10.i386
[wwoods@metroid ~]$ gpk-application -v
...
TI:18:08:17	TH:0x955b3f0	FI:gpk-common.c	FN:gpk_window_set_size_request,55
 - using small form factor mode

My monitor's 1680x1050, for the record.

Comment 10 Jesse Keating 2008-10-27 22:37:39 UTC
I really don't think this is a preview blocker.  Moving over to F10Blocker.

Comment 11 Richard Hughes 2008-10-27 23:01:49 UTC
Thanks for testing this so fast Will -- apologies, I'm getting sleepy here:

* Mon Oct 27 2008 Richard Hughes  <rhughes> - 0.3.9-4
- Barr. Actually apply the patch. Sleep time.

Can you retry 0.3.9-4 please? Thanks.

Comment 12 Will Woods 2008-10-28 05:06:45 UTC
No apologies necessary - rumor has it you're only human. :)

0.3.9-4 works as expected. Closing.
