For what it's worth, the vendor is not using a bait and switch. This application was published in the Partner reop before we had the ability for For Purchase apps.

This is still an open issue. The program is still listed as "free" with an "unknown" license, giving false information to users. I have uninstalled the program since the software partner is using a bait and switch. The software partner should correct this immediately or it should be removed from the software center until they can correctly place it in the correct category (For Purchase) and the correct license (shareware/trial). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/552830 Title: Software UltraEdit whose price is free is asking for $39.95 + taxes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/552830/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@ Matthew Paul Thomas well, sorry for the last one, was clearly too long and a bit off-topic here. But i was nearly angry. I was expecting free software (ue/micro-emacs) and had to face a _shareware_ nag (*HU !*). About "hacky hack" and infrastructures, i see two (well proof) solutions, 1. Repos (pool/shareware here) 2. naming convention (avoiding miss interpretation) I got a nag and didn't like it ! Don't get me wrong, even if im against "shareware" (witch in fact, are mostly "time-restricted-ware", having little in common with sharing (terminological)) i can consider "the need" of such a repos. Canonical (with Ubuntu) has clearly done (and still do) a HUGE job in spreading FREE software and sources, but i also think that the time has come for Ubuntu to consider a way to track freedom and commerce ... in separated ways.

OK, on the other side, it is my and solely fault ... i trusted Canonical enough to enable it's "partner" repos (and by the way, "restricted" was enabled too ... and still (as on my ubuntu on 12.04.10) ...) but how long for this distro ? |{ . In fact, i didn't _really_ check where the "source" was ... "partner"/"restricted" ... don't really matter ... a single apt-cache check got me to "pool/partner/u/" and this is enough, for me, to say : NO !
