           Summary: Kynaptic appears to hang but in fact wants console input
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kynaptic
        AssignedTo: debzilla at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: paul at boddie.org.uk
         QAContact: kubuntu-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


When running Kynaptic from the KDE panel, after installing software it appears to hang. Upon running it from 
the console, the problem revealed itself: Kynaptic prompts for console input for actions that the graphical 
user interface obviously doesn't support. For example: 
 
Configuration file `/etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc' 
 ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation. 
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version. 
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are: 
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version 
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version 
      D     : show the differences between the versions 
      Z     : background this process to examine the situation 
 The default action is to keep your current version. 
*** kdmrc (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?
