Error notifications prevent full interaction with interface below
Please describe the issue you’re experiencing: …
What Linux distribution are you using, and what kind of package (RPM, deb, flatpak, etc.) are you experiencing the problem with? I'm using Zorin OS 16.2 Pro. The store app "Software" is version "3.36.1".
Please attach a log of the issue, by running the following commands, reproducing the issue, and then attaching gnome-software.log
here:
pkill gnome-software
gnome-software --verbose &> gnome-software.log
I did this but the instructions don't say where to find the resulting log file (I ran a search which didn't show anything).
If the problem is with the user interface, please attach a screenshot or video of it. Please attach the file directly rather than linking to an external hosting service, as external files are likely to be deleted after a while. I've clicked 'install' on a program and then when I get prompted for my user password to allow the install, I sometimes change my mind and click on 'Cancel'. However this results in a few issues:
A popup that's hard to notice saying I don't have permissions appears (maybe it should say I denied permissions or something else instead). While the popup is appearing (and I don't close it), the interface still works however, text no longer works as a selection, only clicking on icons in the list (including navidation icons) does. So for example clicking 'configure monitors' in the screenshot doesn't do anything but clicking on the icon for 'monitor settings' does. This issue goes away once the pop-up 'unable to install/you don't have permissions' window is closed - clicking 'Configure Monitors' and clicking text as navigation resumes as normal behaviour. It's annoying because it's not clear that the pop-up is restricting navigation as it's just stopping me clicking on text seemingly randomly. I wanted to raise this to the devs as I think this is a small bug. It happens on both default and 'wayland' desktop options (that you can select on login).
