[Bug 557579] Re: "Use this Source" button unclear

 

Although one could argue that the concept of sources still isn't
incredibly clear, in maverick the situation from in lucid was greatly
improved, so I'll mark this bug as fixed.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Released

Title:
  "Use this Source" button unclear

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
   affects ubuntu/software-center

  When testing a daily Live CD from 2010-04-07 I launched Software Center
  and searched for "celestia".  After clicking on celestia I was presented
  with a button that said "Use This Source".  However, there is no clear
  indication as to what "This" is.  Additionally, the line below the
  button says "To show information about this item, the software catalog
  needs updating".  I think it would be more informative and make more
  sense if the button were to say "Update Sources".  Or it might be event
  better to provide an explanation to what sources are and why they need
  updating.
