[Bug 1581229] Re: "Started" column not displayed for processes when column is enabled in settings

[Sebastien Bacher]

the debdiff can easily be adapted but if you want to do the xenial SRU
that would be welcome, the team working on the GNOME3 ppa should be able
to use the yakkety debdiff or adapt don't worry, also you probably don't
need to bother much using VMs and build/testing on each serie, just get
the source for xenial, do the change and generate a debdiff using
whatever version of ubuntu you are on, for those sort of changes it
should be safe enough and the sponsor can test before uploading

Title:
  "Started" column not displayed for processes when column is enabled in
  settings

Status in Gnome System Monitor:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  Confirmed
Status in gnome-system-monitor package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I have recently noticed that in the gnome-system-monitor if I go into
  the settings and tick the box for "Started" in the "Information
  fields" section of that the "Processes" tab that the "Started" column
  is not added and in fact this information is not seemingly displayed
  anywhere except for in the "Properties" window for a process. But it
  would be really useful if it did actually appear as a column so that
  you could easily view the start times for multiple processes at the
  same time and to also sort them in terms of that. I am running Ubuntu
  GNOME 15.10 with GNOME 3.18 but I have also experienced the behaviour
  on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20, in fact when running it on that
  system through Terminal this was the output (the exact moment I
  checked the "Started" box in the settings to add that column I got the
  first bit of output and then very quickly the other output followed):
