Title:
  Ubuntu Software Center crashed trying to install "Chromium BSU" video
  game

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

Bug description:
  I just installed 12.04 Alpha on a clean hard drive on a Dell Latitude D520. 
  After installing I ran apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade to make fully up to date.
  I was seeing if Chrome (web browser) was in the Ubuntu Software Center [USC] and saw this game and decided to install it.... but USC crashed :(

  1) version of Ubuntu
  vyze@PreciseAlpha:~/Downloads$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu precise (development branch)
  Release:	12.04

  2) version of package I was using (software-center)
  vyze@PreciseAlpha:~/Downloads$ apt-cache policy software-center
  software-center:
    Installed: 5.1.4
    Candidate: 5.1.4
    Version table:
   *** 5.1.4 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
