Public bug reported:
When the installation of an application is started via the software
center, a launcher shortcut is created, but if the application
installation is cancelled, the shortcut on the launcher changes from
"Awaiting installation" to an apparently functional launcher for an
installed application (complete with app quicklist) however it doesn't
actually launch anything because the application was not installed.
Potentially confusing for new users.
