[Bug 792150] Re: software center crashes on resize

[Mark Johnson]

Yes, it is happening every time I try to vertically resize the Software
Center.  It does restart normally afterwards.

I've attached the output from starting software center in a terminal.
While doing this, I noticed that the terminal would crash when resized
vertically too.  Also, so did my battery monitor (launched from the
battery icon on the panel).

This crash happens almost every time.

Also, the programs were not crashing when resized on the external
monitor.  They only crashed on the built-in monitor.  I will attach a
diagram showing the layout of the monitors.

Title:
  software center crashes on resize

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  I open Software Center from the Launcher.  I put the mouse cursor on
  the bottom border and drag down to increase the vertical size.  When I
  release the mouse button, the Software Center window simply
  disappears.

  This happens every time I try to start and increase the vertical size
  of the window.  It does not happen when increasing the horizontal size
  of the window.
