Description Craig Magina 2011-07-28 17:35:19 UTC 
Version:           0.2 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

If you are working through a search list, say "kde," and click to install one application but plan to continue working through the list and select more applications to install, once muon finishes installing everything you have queued up it will return to the home screen requiring you to start your search all over even though you may not be done or have even moved on to other searches.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start installing an application
2. Wait until it finishes

Actual Results:  
It will return to the home screen with the info message asking if you would like to start the application you installed.

Expected Results:  
That it would just show the informational message, not also return to the home screen.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.0-7-generic
Compiler: gcc

This behavior is due to a current technical limitation. (After an installation the cache must be reloaded.) I do plan on adding a feature to remember where you were before the cache refresh, and try to take you back if possible.

So for 1.4 we figured out a way to do this. Unfortunately it won't be part of the soon-to-be-released 1.3, but hey, it'll be there for 1.4. :)
Comment 4 Jonathan Thomas 2012-02-21 16:39:30 UTC 
Oh, and now you can probably call what's in git master 1.3.50, since we branched off 1.3 into a separate 1.3 branch. :P

Oops, disregard that last comment. It was meant for a different bug.
