[Bug 841459] Re: Install button displayed in program list even if required source is not enabled

 

Confirming this one.... In 11.10, I removed the Cannonical Partners and
Independent repositories. Launch Software Center, and search for Skype.
I can click install, am asked to authenticate.  From this point, there
is a small progress bar, which goes from 0 to about 5%, then the Install
button comes back.  I can keep clicking install, but nothing gets
installed, and I'm not prompted to go update my software sources.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

Title:
  Install button displayed in program list even if required source is
  not enabled

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  For example, in Software Center's program list, Skype was displayed
  with an install button even though the partner repository was not
  enabled. Pressing the install button in this case does nothing.
