Bug Description

Binary package hint: zenity

Hi, I did this test :
wget -cv "http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz" |zenity --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title="teste da barra de progresso" --text "Download de :\n\thttp://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz\nDownload para :\n\tinstall_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz..."

with any URL. And the same problem, Zenity does not show progress bar with pulsate effect.

I test without compiz and with compiz, the same problem.
Previous version of Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10, zenity runs OK.
My Zenity :
$ zenity --version
2.24.0

My Ubuntu (amd64) :
$ uname -a
Linux worklab 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP Thu Oct 30 04:12:22 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

For progress pulsate, mine is still working in intrepid, but not for progress bar.

May be you could try to add redirection in your script, so, from:

wget -cv "http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz" |zenity --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title="teste da barra de progresso" --text "Download de :\n\thttp://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz\nDownload para :\n\tinstall_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz..."

change it to:

wget -cv "http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz" 2>&1 | zenity --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title="teste da barra de progresso" --text "Download de :\n\thttp://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz\nDownload para :\n\tinstall_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz..."

I have confirmed progress pulsate works if you add redirection.

Hummm, but is it a zenity bug or new zenity "modus operandi" ?

I have the same problem with if, for, while,... when dont use any echo. Example :

while true ; do
  # I dont have any echo
  var="test" ;
  # bla, bla, bla...
done|zenity --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title="pulsate testing" --text "pulsate ?"

Prior versions, zenity runs OK.

This bug has been fixed in the upstream code. When the zenity project puts out the next release, this fix will be included. Then, we'll get that new version into Ubuntu.
