[Bug 827615] Re: software-center crashed with TypeError in show_available_packages(): this constructor takes no arguments

 

We have moved to the new software center UI since the last report of
this issue, and this problem appears to be fixed there. I cannot
reproduce this myself when installing a standalone deb file. I'll close
based ont his and on Viktor's comment.

Many thanks!
