Description Mads Kiilerich 2009-10-08 14:13:06 UTC
Description of problem:

setroubleshoot takes several seconds to start up. On slow machines I often start it again because I thought i missed the click.

setroubleshoot really shut use some kind of startup notification.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

setroubleshoot-2.1.14-3.fc11.i586 - but also rawhide

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2009-10-08 14:15:43 UTC
Or startup quicker.  I have not figured out what is taking so long.  I guess it is waiting for the service to start.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2009-11-16 13:25:17 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle.
Changing version to '12'.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2010-01-21 21:29:38 UTC
Fixed in setroubleshoot-2.2.58-1.fc12       
yum update setroubleshoot\* --enablerepo=updates-testing

Comment 4 Michael Monreal 2010-06-18 14:54:31 UTC
Is this bug about the startup time of "sealert"? It still takes about 5-6 seconds to start on my F13 system (Core2Duo, 4 GB RAM) even when no bugs have been logged (empty list) which does not really sound reasonable to me.

Comment 5 Michael Monreal 2010-06-18 14:56:21 UTC
In case "fixed" means there should be launch feedback: there is no launch feedback either

Comment 6 Daniel Walsh 2010-06-18 15:07:28 UTC
We have fixed both of these in the latest setroubleshoot.

I am building F13 setroubleshoot for F12.  Please try it out and see if it fixes your problem.

Comment 7 Michael Monreal 2010-06-18 15:30:27 UTC
If launched from the menu, the latest (-88) build makes the mouse pointer spin during startup. It keeps spinning even after the app shows, for about another 5 seconds.

Besides this, I did not see improved startup time.

Comment 8 Daniel Walsh 2010-06-18 19:07:39 UTC
Then you never saw the really slow startup.  The spinning would have stopped long before the app would have shown up.  Tool is basically checking if there is a newer version of selinux-policy available.  It used to wait for yum to download all the data to check.  Now it starts without waiting and runs the check in the background.
