Actually, I think "Software" comes from the Gnome Project. Make of that what you will. I use the Gnome desktop but not "Software". Like you I found completely inadequate to my needs but it's installed anyway. I use the Aptitude TUI and apt from the terminal when I don't need the TUI. I do a lot in the terminal so it's not a pain point for me. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
