ClamTk doesn't work. The GUI is never responsive. #64

Closed dzu181 closed 7 years ago

dzu181 commented 8 years ago

I installed ClamTk on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and the GUI is not responsive , no matter what I do. Many people are also having this issue.

Please fox this. Thank you.

Hi,

Can you give me some more information? What version of clamtk are you using? When did this start happening?

Also, please open a terminal window and type "clamtk" (no quotes). Then try to scan like you were doing. If there are any error messages, please let me know.

I am using version 5.22.1-1 just like in the attached screenshot, Sir. I downloaded it from this link: https://bitbucket.org/dave_theunsub/clamtk/downloads/clamtk_5.22-1_all.deb

It happeded right at the first time I launched the Tk, and many many times after I restarted my computer and the program itself, nothing changed. I tried to single click, double click, and even pressed the Enter key, but nothing changed on the screen. Actually I saw no effects on the screen, not a single pixel of my screen changed its state, despite the color changes of the buttons I clicked on, like in the attached screenshot. I also opened the Ubuntu Software Center on my Ubuntu 16.04 again, and I saw people commenting things about the same issue on other versions of Clamtk as well. There were only complains, and no solution. It seems that all versions got stuck at something, Sir.

I started the terminal and typed "clamtk" with no quotes, and nothing changed. Still the same GUI, and the same non-responsive state.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you.

Respectfully, Dzu N

This is weird. I have Virtualbox with Ubuntu 16, 15, and 12.04, and this doesn't happen with any of them. Or Fedora or CentOS either.

Do you remember what version worked last? I'm trying to pinpoint when something may have happened... may help us figure out what's going on.

This is the first time I install Ubuntu, Sir. This is also the first time I install ClamTk.

Hmmm... this is going to be tough to diagnose then. Let's try this, although it's a long shot... Open a terminal window and type sudo apt-get install -f

And see what happens. Maybe it's missing some dependencies...

Closing for now. Open a new ticket if you still require assistance.

Found the cause: the ui requires 'double click' by default on each button to work.

This can be changed in the 'settings': image

fisicayquimicaESO commented 6 years ago

I was facing the same issue. A quick google search led me to this bug report.

Therefore, I can confirm the issue and the workaround. My suggestion is to change this behaviour unless there is a solid reason to require a double click, as this UI behaviour is quite counter-intuitive.

dave-theunsub commented 6 years ago

@fisicayquimicaESO You're probably right. I had some reasons at the time to give an option, but removing it altogether would be better.

Anyway, as soon as I can get a new development system (old one died), I'll add that to the list of stuff for the next version. :)

Thanks, Dave M
