Bug description:
Ubuntu Software Center 5.1.14.1, the Precise Pangolin, beta 2
Unity 5.8.0-0ubuntu2
[Test Case]
1. Launch the current Ubuntu Software Center in Precise.
2. Click the down arrow in the toolbar next to the "All Software" button, and
choose the "For Purchase" item.
3. In the list of displayed items for purchase, choose an application (but
*not* a magazine or book) that is free (that is, marked as $0 -- unless you
wish to purchase something).
4. Click the "More Info" button.
5. In the details view for the application, click the "Buy" button.
6. Follow the purchase process. For a $0 item, you will not be prompted for
payment information.
7. Enter the password for the install when prompted.
8: The progress bar activates in Software Center. Note that for purchased
items, it can take a bit of time before the progress bar transitions from
intdeterminate to determinate.
9: At the very *end* of the installation process (when the progress bar has
completed), verify that no icon for the installed purchase item has been added
to the Unity launcher.
10. Close Ubuntu Software Center.
11. Update to both the software-center *and* unity packages in
precise-proposed.
12. Repeat steps 1 through 8.
13. This time, at the very *end* of the install process, verify that the
corresponding icon "flies" to the Unity launcher and is added there.
14. Click the launcher icon and verify that the newly installed application
launches.
[Regression Potential]
Risk of regression is very low. Probably the only thing you might watch for
would be an unexpected exception reported. If anything like this occurs, of
course, please note it in the bug.
