Title:
USC cannot install software from PPAs when desired
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
If I wish to install Ubuntu software that is packaged by the developer
and is not available in Ubuntu (or it's latest form, which would be
desirable in many cases) - USC does not work as expected. Namely,
after adding the PPA to sources as per Launchpad instructions, USC
cannot find the software.
A workaround is to use another program, the Update Manager, to run a
check on the newly-available software first and then go back to USC to
install it. This is fairly unintuitive.
