Hello Gary, or anyone else affected, Accepted software-center into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software- center/5.2.5 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu Precise) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1012877 Title: Applications in the "Independent" section are not being added to the Unity launcher Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “software-center” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Bug description: Ubuntu Software Center 5.2.2.2, Ubuntu 12.04 The Precise Pangolin [TEST CASE] 1. Launch the current Ubuntu Software Center in Precise. 2. Click the down arrow in the toolbar next to the "All Software" button, and choose the "Independent" item. 3. In the list of displayed items, choose an application that is not yet installed. 4. Click the "More Info" button. 5. In the details view for the application, click the "Install" button. 6. Enter the password for the install if prompted. 7: At the very *end* of the installation process (when the progress bar has completed), verify that no icon for the installed application has been added to the Unity launcher. 8. Close Ubuntu Software Center. 9. Update to both the software-center *and* unity packages in precise-proposed. 10. Repeat steps 1 through 8. 11. This time, at the very *end* of the install process, verify that the corresponding icon "flies" to the Unity launcher and is added there. 12. Click the launcher icon and verify that the newly installed application launches. [REGRESSION POTENTIAL] Risk of regression is very low. Probably the only thing you might watch for would be an unexpected exception reported. If anything like this occurs, of course, please note it in the bug. --- Applications in from the extras.ubuntu.com archive (aka "Independent" section, or ARB apps) are not being automatically added to the Unity launcher (for the case where the automatic add is enabled). To reproduce: 1. Launch Ubuntu Software Center. 2. Make sure that the "View"-<"New Applications in Launcher" menu item is checked. 3. Select the "All Software" dropdown in the toolbar and select "Independent". 4. Install one of the items in this list. What happens: The application's icon is not added to the Unity Launcher. What should happen: The application's icon should be added to the Unity Launcher.
