Title:
  Can't Upgrade on software center

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

Bug description:
  i download a .deb package on debian website, because of a bug on ibus-
  chewing.

  On my 32-bit laptop, click the ibus-chewing .deb package and open with
  software center.

  wait it 30 sec, the "Install"  button will become "Upgrade"  button,
  and it says Upgrade is available.

  And I upgrade it successfully.

  However, I download its amd64 .deb package on my desktop.

  the same step,

  click it and open with software center, then there just a "Install"
  button

  and i click "Install".

  it didn't do anything.

  so somebody suggest use dpkg -i <the package>, it's work.

  they tell me don't download the package which the software center
  already have, official suggest use ppa.

  But i still think it's a bug.

  if fix it, it will have a great user experience.

  the 2 computer both use ubuntu 11.10.

  the desktop use amd64 version, the laptop use 32-bit version.

  and the .deb download page http://packages.debian.org/sid/ibus-chewing

  it's a really big bug in ibus-chewing 1.3.9 ubuntu used( if highlight
  the word you type, click anywhere, the word you typed will disappear
  on Chrome Browser)

  (By the way, i just can speak a little English, maybe there some
  sentence you will   confuse )
