Hi,

Software-center is not launching in xubuntu 12.04.3, using version
5.2.10

Launching using terminal, I have

$ software-center
2014-01-09 13:39:20,664 - softwarecenter.ui.gtk3.app - INFO - setting up proxy 'None'
2014-01-09 13:39:20,669 - softwarecenter.db.database - INFO - open() database: path=None use_axi=True use_agent=True
Traceback (most recent call last):

    app = SoftwareCenterAppGtk3(datadir, xapian_base_path, options, args)
  File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/app.py", line 305, in __init__
    self.backend = get_install_backend()
  File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/backend/installbackend.py", line 86, in get_install_backend
    from softwarecenter.backend.installbackend_impl.aptd import (

    from aptdaemon import client
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/aptdaemon/client.py", line 70, in <module>
    class MemoizedMixIn(MemoizedTransaction, GObject.GObjectMeta):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 316, in __getattr__
    return getattr(self._introspection_module, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 135, in __getattr__
    self.__name__, name))
AttributeError: 'gi.repository.GObject' object has no attribute 'GObjectMeta'

After reinstall, I obtained:

$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall software-center
...
Updating software catalog...this may take a moment.
