Title:
After search string change, Ubuntu software centre incorrectly offers
"install" option for an installed application
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1) Perform search for installed package (e.g. "monodev" results in the "Mono
Develop" package being returned at the top of the list)
2) Select first entry so that the "Remove" button is displayed
3) Amend search string so another installed package is returned top of the
list (e.g. change string to "mono" and "Mono Runtime" package becomes first
item in results)
Expected Behaviour:
Installed package has a "Remove" button
Actual Behaviour:
Installed package has an "Install" button (yet it also has a Green Tick
overlay suggesting it knows it is installed).
Clicking "Install" results in the "Remove" behaviour occuring, leading to
confusion.
