Dear Maintainer, When I use this app to choose a mirror, or try to select * Officially supported (main) * DFSG-compatible Software with Non-Free Dependences (contrib) * Non-DFSG-compatible Software (non-free) The program simply does nothing. The mirror i've selected isn't changed in the combo box The check boxes aren't marked So, the program is not utilizable for it's purposes I've seen this problem around for a long time, and i guess this was solved in squeeze. But I have the same problem in wheeze again. I'm a developer, but I don't have experience with Debian. May I could help if you tell me how Thank you
I tested this and got the same results as the reporter. When the checkbox is clicked for "Officially supported (main)" the checkmark appears briefly then goes away. Below is the debug output. The lines after the gpg lines are repeated each time the checkbox is clicked. $ software-properties-gtk -m -d (software-properties-gtk:28901): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 3 char 78: Element 'markup' was closed, but the currently open element is 'i' gpg: /tmp/tmpjsWZTq/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created gpg: can't open `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' gpg: keydb_search_first failed: file open error ENABLED COMPS: set([]) INTERNET COMPS: set([]) MAIN SOURCES CHILD SOURCES CDROM SOURCES SOURCE CODE SOURCES DISABLED SOURCES ISV Regards,
reproduce it on my current system. I'll check again on my older system later this month or next month. Note: My old system uses a mirror on localhost, my new system uses an official mirror.
