[Bug 1396611] Re: Can't install apps from the store under a unity8 desktop session

 

Well, Xenial is getting the new PackageKit which doesn't support
additional plug-ins, so clicks will not be installable there, no matter
what is done.

There is nothing unity-scope-click can do about the configuration of
packagekit, either. If you want to install clicks on a traditional PC,
you will need to alter the the configuration (or install whatever is
included on the phone images, which performs that alteration for you).

Why did you mark this as Invalid in click and re-assign to the scope? If
any package should do anything about this, it is click itself, not the
scope.

** No longer affects: unity-scope-click (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: click (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- Can't install apps from the store under a unity8 desktop session
+ Cannot install click packages on ISO installs of Ubuntu
