Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: software-center
This bug came from something I noticed when commenting on bug #495325.
I was having trouble installing an application from the Ubuntu Software
Center, and looked to the offline docs for help.
Excerpt from my comment:
=============
I checked the (offline) documentation at
Ubuntu Help Center > Topics > Adding, Removing and Updating
Applications > Installing an application
Step 3 notes the arrow button that needs to be clicked to continue with
the installation process, but step 4 jumps directly over the information
I was looking for in order to install the application, which was "where
the hell is in the install button?".
==============
In my particular case, the buttons were missing due to a bug, but
regardless of that, if the docs spelled out where the install button was
supposed to be located, I could have saved myself a lot of time,
confusion, and frustration.
