I could have filed three different bite-sized bugs, but all in all I believe they are part of the generic accessibility problem with the &#8217;Revert&#8217; button that could be fixed in one go. (If the developers think otherwise, I&#8217;ll be happy to split this into different reports.)<\/p>\n<p>When you first run Software Sources, &#8217;Revert&#8217; is ghosted as it probably should, implying no changes have been made that could be reverted.<\/p>\n<p>Issue #1:<br \/>\nSteps to reproduce:<br \/>\nWhen Download from: is pointing at main servers, change it to something else and &#8217;Revert&#8217; becomes active.

Close Software Sources. Start it again. &#8217;Revert&#8217; is now ghosted, implying there are again no changes to be reverted. Point Download from: to a third mirror, and &#8217;Revert&#8217; becomes active. Click &#8217;Revert&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>What happens:<br \/>\nDownload from: now points to main servers.<\/p>\n<p>What should happen:<br \/>\nI&#8217;d expect it to point to my local mirror, which was the initial state opening the window.<\/p>\n<p>Issue #3:<br \/>\nPerhaps &#8217;Revert&#8217; wrt the Download from: site means not reverting back to initial state of this SS session, but reverting back to the very initial state of pointing to main servers. But in that case, &#8217;Revert&#8217; should *not* be ghosted when Software Sources starts with Download from: pointing somewhere else, as it just did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve specified three different specific cases to demonstrate what I mean by the title, below.
