Public bug reported:
I have some purchased software that I am not able to install due to
Ubuntu Software Center considering that the development release (saucy
as I'm writing this), is not supported.
This means that advanced users that want to have saucy installed will
not be able to access that purchased software anymore. With the incoming
plans for the development release to be a "rolling release", this would
mean that I'd not be able to access that software unless I go back to an
"stable" release.
Given that the development release is considered of use by not the
regular users, but advanced ones that want to have the latest software,
I would consider the "release check" in the software center to not be
done in any case when in the latest development release.
