http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1093071 Bug ID: 1093071 Summary: YaST constantly steals focus Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: openSUSE Factory Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: okurz@suse.com QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com CC: ben.kevan@bio-rad.com, casualprogrammer@opensuse.org, cyberorg@opensuse.org, diego.ercolani@gmail.com, ensonic@sonicpulse.de, federico@suse.com, francis@opensuse.org, gabriel@opensuse.org, jdsn@suse.com, jonas@jonasbjork.net, l_v_brienen@casema.nl, m.moeller@opensuse.org, Markus.Elfring@web.de, martin@oneiros.de, mmeeks@suse.com, ptomes@gmail.com, ric8cruz@gmail.com, Roland.Kletzing@dguv.de, sbrabec@suse.com, tilman@imap.cc, Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de, volker_apelt@yahoo.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #326158 +++ ## Observation There are a lot of very old bugs already and at least in the current state seems like the behaviour described in these bugs is still present: YaST during some actions, especially package installation (but not in the "software management" module itself), opens many popup dialogs and steals the focus preventing to work with the system while yast does its actions ## Steps to reproduce * In an installed system, open the yast control center, open "Remote Administration (VNC)", enable any of the Remote Administration options and confirm * Confirm installation of necessary package and minimize or focus another application * Observe how the yast configuration dialog gains focus again (unminimized) ## Expected result * For minimised YaST progress dialogs should never popup * progress dialogs should not get focus for unfocussed foreground applications ## Further details Seems this has been reported already many times so it might be interesting to dig a bit into history here: * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326158 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331835 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=34759 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334631 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615927 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=372319 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74073 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=330649 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=297642 * https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=298071 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[…] What you are asking for, however, is a minor annoyance that affects only a very small number of users, mostly in our internal QA department.
Well, I got this report from a non-SUSE openSUSE user and was just trying to first reproduce myself and report accordingly.
[…] But so far, nobody seems to have a bright idea what can be done.
well, the software management module actually does it fine: It shows the progress notification using the same view as the installer within the same window in an inner frame and therefore no problem there. Another alternative is to ensure that multiple packages do not spawn multiple dialogs but just one. In this case it might popup once but you can minimize. That would already help. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
