Sorry for assigning it then to the papercuts, but as a comment @mpt : as you 
said, "it would need non-trivial design work before it became fixable", but 
afterwards, it would be easy to fix I guess (desktop files do contain a 
Terminal entry). So i guess that it still meets the papercut requirements, 
because: 
- it is a problem occurring within an existing piece of software, software 
center
- it's presence makes a computer less pleasant to use (if you want to use an 
app, you install it from SC and you can not start it, it makes a computer less 
pleasant to use)
- it is easy to fix, see above
- the average user encounters in in a default application in Ubuntu
So maybe the definition of a papercut should be a bit more precise, e.g. the 
"easy to fix" bullet could be "does not require more than one man-day of 
work(coding, design, etc)".
