[Bug 901336] Re: Software center doesn't work after LP accounts merge

 

Hi Ante,

Thanks for the bug report, and sorry for the delay.
I believe your subscriptions are sorted out now, let me know if you have the same problem again when reinstalling your purchases.

I'm leaving this bug open for the underlying issue of not coping with LP
account merges.

  Software center doesn't work after LP accounts merge

Bug description:
  Some time ago my LP account diverged for some reason. I was unaware of
  that problem and I kept using all the services. It looks like software
  center used 'ivoks-y' account for my purchases. Later I realized I
  have multiple accounts and have merged them into 'ivoks' account.

  Now, when I try installing previously purchased applications in
  Software Center, it still sets private PPA repositories with 'ivoks-y'
  username. By manually replacing username with 'ivoks' I can install
  the package I purchased before the merge.

  It seems that Software Center doesn't keep track of merged Launchpad
  accounts.
