Description kdebugs 2014-04-09 10:49:49 UTC

The exit button in the corner closes it, but everything else is locked up - unresponsive.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start muon
2. Mark any package to install/remove/purge
3. Click Apply
4. Just ignore the authentication window for a while (e.g. 20-30 seconds)
5. Press Cancel.



If you press cancel right away, it's not a problem - only if you wait.

Still happens in Ubuntu 14.04 (KDE 4.13.1, muon 2.2.0).

I found that it also affects muon-updater in the same fashion, but in this case you can't even close it with the x in the corner.

I found that if you kill the root-owned process qaptworker2, it unfreezes.  That's why I'm setting the component to qaptworker.  However I haven't looked at the code and don't know how it works, so for all I know it might be just in the way muon and muon-updater interact with qaptworker2.

Muon is no longer maintained, please switch no a supported alternative like https://apps.kde.org/discover/ or the package manager native no your system.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
