Title:
  Some Packages Refuse to Install

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  I tried to install Kexi and the SQLite database browser. The Software
  Center will not all them to install. I don't care about security
  certificates. This is a MAJOR USABILITY PROBLEM. Most user will not
  know to go the command line and install software from there.

  This needs to be fixed. I call it a bug. Either remove the packages
  that will not install without a certificate or fix the problem so this
  doesn't happen anymore.

  I'm planning on training people how to install software. This puts a
  big roadblock in my way. I can resolve this issue, but most people
  will become completely lost and frustrated when they can't install
  software.
