In Ubuntu 11.04 or earlier, purchase an item in USC that isn't available for Ocelot. 2. Do a clean install of Ocelot. 3. Launch USC. 4. Choose "File" > "Reinstall Previous Purchases". 5. Select the item. 6. Choose "Install". What happens: * Nothing visible. * At the terminal: ------------ 2011-08-25 19:03:22,074 - softwarecenter.backend - ERROR - error in _on_trans_finished 'Error: Package does not exist Check the spelling of the package name, and that the appropriate repository is enabled. Package [dbus.String(u'vendetta-online')] isn't available' 2011-08-25 19:03:22,417 - softwarecenter.backend - WARNING - _on_trans_error: Transaction failed: None Package [dbus.String(u'vendetta-online')] isn't available ------------ What should happen: I hadn't specified this at all. But probably something like: 4. Any item that isn't available in this version of Ubuntu has a No symbol overlaid on the bottom left of its icon. 5. The "Install" button isn't present. 6. Clicking "More Info" takes you to a software item screen explaining that the item is not available for this version of Ubuntu, and that you should contact the vendor for an updated version. #5 alone would be a minimal fix.
