Title:
No install option for paid apps, only a Buy option - Gives a problem
when re-installing
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Example: Beyond Compare.
I already have a a licence for this, and I've rebuilt my machine on
12.10 as a fresh install.
What Happens:
When using Ubuntu Software Center to install the app which I've already paid
for, the only option in the GUI is to click "Buy..."
What should happen:
An option for those who already have licences would be beneficial, without
having to log in to ubuntu one.
