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

 

For SSO, we need to have a notification system in place first so we can
publish account merges for software-center-agent to pick up and update
their data accordingly.

Title:
  Software center doesn't work after LP accounts merge

Status in Canonical SSO provider:
  Confirmed
Status in Online service used by software center:
  New
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

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.
