[Bug 1400652] [NEW] "Access Prompt" inappropriately presented as an app

 

Public bug reported:

gcr 3.10.1-1, Ubuntu 14.04

1. Launch Ubuntu Software Center.
2. Search for "access".

What you see: "Access Prompt" appears as an installed app that can be
removed.

What you should see: "Access Prompt" should not be shown as an app at
all. It's a crypto library.

This bug contributed to the confusion that led to
