Public bug reported:
Software a user have chosen to uninstall should not be put at the top of
the list of software recommendations. The act of uninstalling should
count as a down-vote for that software package.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Clean installation of Ubuntu
2. Uninstall any software package (e.g. `unity-webapps-common`)
3. Open the Software Center
4. Login using a Ubuntu single sign on
5. Enable recommendations
6. Open Recommended for you
What do you know: there is Amazon ‘Unity WebApp integration script’
listed as the number two software I should (re-)install even though I
clearly do not want it on my system.
Ubuntu 12.10, software-center 5.4.1.3
** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu)
