Originally reported at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/708623 Binary package hint: banshee Steps to reproduce: When using the banshee last.fm plugin, the user is asked in the preferences, to provide a username. Then there is a 'login' button. Pressing this button leads to it beeing replaced by two buttons, 'Finish loggin in' and 'Try again'. There is also text: 'You need to allow Banshee access to your Last.fm account'. Problem: There is nowhere a sign that tells me that when I pressed 'Log in' the last.fm page was opened in my webbrowser (which I can't see, since it is on a different desktop) and is waiting for input from the user. Fix: Replace the text: 'You need to allow Banshee access to your Last.fm account'. with something meaningful like: "The last.fm page was opened in your browser. On that page you can give Banshee the right to access last.fm" or something like this
Banshee is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes more than three years ago. Its codebase has been archived. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is being shut down) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. See https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/issues/264 for more info.
