Context: If I add a third-party repository to my sources, I experience a delay before it becomes available in the Software Center. Consider the following shell commands (on a fresh, patched install of 14.04-amd64): wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | \ sudo apt-key add - echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable main" | \ sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list sudo apt-get -qq update apt-cache show google-talkplugin sudo update-software-center software-center & After running these, my expectation is that the "google-talkplugin" package should be immediately available via the Software Center search bar, since it's available via apt-cache(8). My experience is that the package will be unfindable until some indeterminate number of minutes later. The update-software-center(8) command doesn't seem to get the job done here. This may be a bug in update-software-center, or may be a design problem with software-center. Is there any way I can give the software-center process a swift kick to update? Or is there some other shell command I can run prior to ensure that the Software Center is fully updated before presenting the GUI?
