** Description changed:

- Software Center version 5.2.2.2, Ubuntu 12.04
+ [Impact] 
+ * On Ubuntu, when the software-center is invoked to install a package from a 
local .deb file, the Install-Button is deactivated while not connected to the 
internet.
  
- On Ubuntu 11.10, when the software-center is invoked to install a
- package from a local .deb file, the Install-Button is deactivated while
- not connected to the internet.
+ [Regression Potential] 
+  I dont see any regression potential here. Currently proposed for merging w/ 
upstream
+ https://code.launchpad.net/~khadgaray/software-center/lp926763/+merge/187054
  
- This is annoying as the software center is unusable slow  while
- connected on my machine, but that's another bug.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+  1. Download .deb file  ( apt-get download mpg123)
+  2. Disconnect from internet
+  3. Attempt to install .deb by double-clicking
+    a. Actual Results: the 'install' button is greyed out and not clickable.
+    b. Expected Results: should be able to install normally.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+ Known Workaround: Install with dpkg from CLI

** Patch removed: "proposed patch for raring"
