Updated description with some other findings coming from bug #889340. ** Description changed:
On a relatively fresh Oneiric install, I pressed the Win key to bring up the application menu. I selected "Media apps", chose "Graphics" from the right-hand list, then selected Dia from the list of installable apps. The Ubuntu Software Centre launched, and displayed the following error: There isn't a software package called "dia-gnome-gnome" in your current software sources. I'd guess that this is a simple copy-paste error (the correct package is, I assume, dia-gnome), but I'm not certain which package contains the bad data. + + EDIT: per bug #889340, Dia shows up two times in Software Center: one + time as "Diagram editor" and a second one as "Dia Diagram Editor". The + first one is installable and has got a complete description, the second + one does not.
