Title:
  Software-center not launching

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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):
    File "/usr/bin/software-center", line 142, in <module>
      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 (
    File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/backend/installbackend_impl/aptd.py", line 34, in <module>
      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.
