Title:
No update following enabling extra software sources
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I was trying to help a friend (trying Ubuntu for the first time)
install Adobe Acrobat Reader since he needs to view a PDF which needs
javascript support. To make sure it'd work for him I was first doing
this on my machine (12.04). It didn't show in my software centre so I
went to edit -> software sources and enabled "Canonical Partners"
(where I believe it lives). It still didn't appear in searches even
after restarting the software centre. There was no offer to update the
package database.
I was determined to do this without the command line so I installed
synaptic from the software centre and searched that for acroread -- it
appears. I then opened software centre again and now it does appear in
searches.
Seems like a bug -- when enabling new software sources it should
really do an update.
