** Description changed: Installing debian packages manually via Software Center is too slow. Steps to reproduce: 1) Double-click a .deb package in Nautilus 2) Wait for USC to open 3) Click install when the package details is shown What should happen: The actual install process (starting when user clicks the install button) should be about as fast as installing the package in the terminal with sudo dpkg -i [package]. What happens instead: On my machine USC is 4-5 times slower than plain dpkg. I used my own game as a test application: dpkg -i: 4 secs USC: 20 secs (time elapsed since the install button was clicked and password given) I repeated this several times with similar results.
