Title:
  Software-Center crashes on starting

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in software-center source package in Precise:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Note for Precise SRU:

  This change has no effect in Precise. It is a simple removal of a
  single line that was an obsolete workaround for an old bug long since
  fixed. This line caused a crash in Quantal and so was removed there,
  and as it is dead code in Precise we removed it from here as well.

  Regression Potential:
  None.

  
  Software-center crashes when started
  Ubuntu is fully updated with Quantal
