Public bug reported:

When I click on 'Re-install previous purchases' in the software centre
it hangs for a while with the loading icon and then returns to the main
page. I get the same thing when turning on recommendations. When I run
from the terminal I see that it is throwing the following error:

2012-05-07 20:19:53,569 - softwarecenter.backend.login_sso - ERROR -
_on_credentials_error for Ubuntu Software Center:
dbus.Dictionary({dbus.String(u'errtype'):
dbus.String(u'AssertionError'), dbus.String(u'message'):
dbus.String(u'Assertion failed.')}, signature=dbus.Signature('ss')) ()

The machine is on 12.04 and was upgraded from 11.10. I see that it is
due to credentials but I have cleared $HOME/.cache/software-centre and
deleted the software centre entry in passwords and encryption keys. I
must have missed something. Just to note that this is not happening on
my other machines which are a mix of upgraded 12.04 and fresh install
12.04. If something like this happens it should probably prompt the user
to re-enter credentials if it does happen.

Can anyone give me a work around at present because at the moment I cant
install my purchased game and I would quite like to play it :).
