Description of problem: It seems that the fix for bug 1812 is making a confirmation coming always for any drakxtools run inside drakconf (and maybe directly too) This seems very annoying. We can't have the fix for bug 1812 without have a regression on the tools ?

I don't see that as a regression There were 2 changes. One was a missing confirmation dialog for live installer. We could make the confirm dialog popups only for some tools but I'm not sure that's a "bug"...

well its annoying, no need to ask user if they are sure to quit for every drakxtools :)

Is it possible to show this pop-up just for the main window ? (draconf.real)
(In reply to comment #2) > well its annoying, no need to ask user if they are sure to quit for every > drakxtools :) I'll second and third that. I always hate having to limp when someone else has a broken leg. Maybe creating a preference setting so we can disable it, will solve both problems/bug/feature/enhancement.

If possible only show this pop-up just for the main window Else, configurable; default on with instruction in that dialog about how to disable and enable.

I choose to use MCC and I have logged in with a PASSWORD. I am doing system work. I know where I am and I know when I want to leave. Having a POP UP like Windows Vista annoy me (twice) asking me if I want to leave is really irritating. It is not a good feature, it is an annoying feature. It should not be once or twice. It should NOT be, period... Simple is best. Please KILL IT. Thanks.

Well, this is weird. 10 people are in favor of removing this, nobody against, still the bug is set to NEW. Can this please be removed, or at least give us an option to disable it?

Remooooooooooooooooooooooove !!!!!!!!
Please remove.
This should been discussed on the devel mailing list

(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #15) > This should been discussed on the devel mailing list Hi Thierry, all the replies on the mailing list (well, if one can call that a discussion, there was not that much participation sadly :/ ) were in favor of removing it, and all comments here are suggesting to remove it, noone was in favor to keep it. https://www.zarb.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2013-February/022994.html On a related note, e.g. when looking at selection windows for package choices (multiple packages providing the same facilities) or the informational dialogs informing about .rpmnew/.rpmold configuration changes, each of those dialogs also triggers the popup. So if you install many packages in one go, you will get several such popups, even if you never closed rpmdrake itself in between. That is quite useless, no? Reported via https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?p=31415#p31415 How do we proceed with this now?

If weight of opinion can make any difference then I most certainly would prefer to see this "feature" gone - soonest.

Surely this is a bug not a "feature". I just had to confirm 3 times to get out of rpmdrake and mcc. Very annoying. It is inconsistent, I can never tell how many times it will ask - sometimes it just loops for ever and I resort to killing the process in activity manager.

Reading bug#1812, I can't see why closing/aborting dialog windows in the installer should *functionally* have anything to do with closing/aborting windows in MCC or the drakx tools. Nothing in bug#1812 requested any such behavior outside of the installer. It seems that either this behavior has been embedded too deeply in the tools code, or else wherever it was inserted, it should be conditional upon whether the installer is active (or maybe whether MCC is *not* active).
Valid 3 RC (and annoying :\)

At the very least put a button: ' More do not show this message ' Thank you.

According to bug#1812, you made this change. Will you please revert it, or give some explanation why not ? The clock is ticking...

Will you please revert it, or > give some explanation why not ? The clock is ticking... I vote for splitting the difference. Add a check box to disable the "feature" in the Options screen of mcc. Add a read "options file" to get user desired setting, simple if statement around the "feature" and you are done. Should not take more than an hour to implement the code even if it is not a function/subroutine. Would not hurt to fix bug 9062 while in options screen when setting the default "feature" on/enabled.

While the bug 1802 really needed to be fixed, i think it went one step too far. To me it reads like it was fixed in https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1812#c17 But the thing that hurts tis bug here i think is the change reported in 1812#c18 (but i fail to be sure what "other issue" refers to, 1812#c9 ? ) Or i am completely wrong... Can anyone tell a reason why anything within mcc should need confirmation for quitting except when there are unsaved changes / unperformed selected operations? (besides... IF we keep this annoyintg popup, then fix it so it works everywhere; for example going mcc-> remove/instal programs, if i click the window [X] i get this popup but whatever i answer nothing happens excpt the popup close, but if i click the exit button inside the window the annoying popup works)
