    - when adding a new database (e.g. on reinstall-previous purchases)
      trigger a "reopen" to ensure that the db docids are reinitialized

    - do not crash if a apt.Package.candidate has no url (LP: #819907)

    - only show the frame with new apps if we actually have information
      about new applications (LP: #862382)

    softwarecenter/db/update.py,
    softwarecenter/distro/Ubuntu.py,

      specified via the software-center-agent (LP: #864706)
