As time goes on, the question "Is X available in Ubuntu Software
Center?" will be increasingly common. And it will be important that this
is not confused with "Is X available in Debian Software Center?", etc
for any other OS that uses a separate set of repositories.

For that reason, as described in
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#branding>, the name should be
"Ubuntu Software Center" -- *not* just "Software Center" -- everywhere
it is displayed in Ubuntu.

I'm all in favor of adapting the window title, about box etc so that it
matches the distribution name. And I'm sure there is some way for the
.desktop file to follow the distribution name too. (Perhaps the
packaging script can insert the appropriate name into the .desktop
file?) But because of the purpose of the program, it's likely that its
icon will continue to contain the Ubuntu logo and therefore need to be
forked.

software-center uses Ubuntu specific branding rather than respect the current 
distro name
