Re: PPA for lubuntu-software-center

 

Hello everyone,

I filed bug report
#846917<https://bugs.launchpad.net/lubuntu-software-center/+bug/846917>
manually
under Lubuntu Software Center package in Launchpad. I wish to add more
details on the report soon. Please correct any filing errors or transfer to
correct link if needed.

Thank you very much!

Loving Lubuntu,

Jean Austin / Philippines
