** Description changed:

  I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 and software-center "5.0.2ubuntu0.1". I'm
  attempting to uninstall several packages one after another, they get
  added to the queue and begin uninstalling while I keep selecting other
  packages. Now, everytime a package finishes uninstalling, the whole
  screen refreshes itself, it becomes unusable for a few seconds while I
  get the spinning wheel icon and then returns control but having
  collapsed all categories instead of remembering where I was.
  
  A possible workaround is to uninstall packages one by one, but that wold
  be quite time consuming and one would have to enter the password for
  each package. In any case, I think it'd be better if the refresh didn't
  happen in such a disruptive way, or at least if it was able to remember
  the user's last position within the software tree.
+ 
+ By the way: I'm using Gnome 3 and Unity is uninstalled from my system (I
+ don't know if that can make any difference).
