Ever since implementing the workaround from #31 (thanks Tim(darkxst) I've been able to start software center. Nevertheless it crashes often when installing new programs. But it seems to install. But that just can't be it. If you have to implement workarounds to use very BASIC FUNCTIONS, the system has been rendered virtually useless for everyone except dedicated or specialist or technical folks. And because we're so happy to have found a workaround for our problems, we overlook the fact that the broad userbase must be deserting the Gnome desktop because aforementioned basic functionality isn't working, and ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS like connectivity via Online Accounts aren't working without at least evil glitches.
Canonical has done a great deal for Linux, but we also shouldn't forget they achieved this by deriving from the very best that was already there: developers, users, Debian(!) ... I find it very disturbing that Canonical is leaving Gnome in such a dismal state - and it feels a little bit like the arrogant stance of some big proprietary players (bullies): take it or leave it.
