Public bug reported:
When selecting pidgin in Software Center in precise, I'm offered
kdebase-workspace-bin as an Addon. The description as listed next to the
checkbox is:
Transitional package for kde-workspace-bin
I think that S-C should try to either show the depended on package or
igonre transitional packages..
This issue still occurs in quantal in 5.4.1.1
In theory, transitional packages shouldn't be left as suggests, but
that's another problem :)
