Package: gnome-software
Version: 3.22.5-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* I installed Fritzing from the Software application (gnome-software). When
launching Fritzing, a number of errors appeard in popup windows about missing
files. Once closing them, there were no parts to use, therefore the software is
unusable.
* I tried searching for the errors online. I found some of the needed files
on GitHub, but there were still errors and cruciall, no working parts. I then
found mention of a .deb that containd the parts. This lead me to search for
this package in Synaptic Package Manager and, sure enough, it was there. I
installed the fritzing, fritzing-data, and fritzing-parts packages via Synaptic
Package Manager. The software now works correctly.
* I expected Fritzing to work correctly when installed from the Software
application, and not have to manually install other packages.
