[Bug 2086200] [NEW] apt: link can't work at this point in the documentation

 

Public bug reported:

If anyone installed ubuntu Desktop 24.04, then opened
https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/ubuntu-help/addremove-install-
synaptic.html.de in Firefox and clicked on the "install"-link (it is an
apt:-URL to apt:synaptic) his Firefox can't find a System Handler to
open this link, because gnome-software is not installed at this point,
the documentation doesn't handle this fact and "App Center" doesn't open
apt:-URLs.

I suggest to mention the additional installation of gnome-software in
the documentation or to add the feature to open apt:-URLs in "App
Center".
