Title:
  App installed from deb not findable under "installed" in software
  center

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

Bug description:
  I installed an app from a deb file (the Python Wing IDE downloaded
  from http://wingware.com/downloads ) - when opening the deb file the
  install is done through the software-center ui. After installation the
  install is not recorded in the software-center "history" and the app
  can't be found by searching "installed" software.

  (So the only way for me to uninstall the app through the software-
  center ui appears to be by re-launching the same deb file.)
