Title:
Ubuntu Software Center does not installing packages from Local
repository
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Ubuntu software center is not able to install packages from local repository
as this question in AskUbuntu.com suggests:
Link http://askubuntu.com/q/137426/61218
I have a Local repository, created to avoid re-downloading of
packages. It is a trusted repository, so no "Authentication errors"
are there. I've tested it with synaptic and apt-get.
But I don't want to install synaptic every time, I install Ubuntu
(since synaptic is removed from default Live CD since Oneiric).
The problem is : "Ubuntu Software Center" does not install packages
from local repository. The install button is greyed out. It installs
packages only when I connect to the Internet and for some unknown
reason it re-downloads the packages which are also in my Local
repository.
My question is: How can I use Software-Center to install packages from
local repository ?
Note: I have placed my local apt line to the top of the sources.list
file and installing from `apt-get` do not require re-downloading for
the same packages.
Here is the output of command from apt-get :
anwar@Ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install nautilus-wipe --print-uris
[sudo] password for anwar:
Reading package lists... Done

The following NEW packages will be installed:
nautilus-wipe

After this operation, 150 kB of additional disk space will be used.
'file:/media/Main/Linux-Software/Ubuntu/Precise/./precise-debs/nautilus-wipe_0.1.1-2_i386.deb'
nautilus-wipe_0.1.1-2_i386.deb 30730 MD5Sum:7d497b8dfcefe1c0b51a45f3b0466994
It is okay with the local copy.
Ubuntu Software Center is not happy with the local copy. The install
button is grayed out. Why? http://i.stack.imgur.com/nNlYj.png
