removed the PPAs throught the GUI, and double-checked that they were gone from

Did you tried with the sudo update-apt-xapian-index command?

That worked! Thank you :)

I'm glad that it helped you :)
Unfortunately i neither know update-software-center existed before today.
What I know is that apt-get update updates dpkg co database, while xapian etc
etc updates the software-center one.
I think that about version 10.10 and 11.04

I was having this issue in Oneiric and discovered that some libraries in
the deactivated PPA had been installed as dependencies for a package in
another PPA. In my case, it was matthaeus123's GIMP PPA that wouldn't go
away and Darktable from pmjdebruijn's PPA that had pulled in the
dependencies
I'm having this issue with Oneiric.
Tried the 'update-software-center' trick but didn't help at all.

yes, USC 4.0.4 in natty appears to use software-properties-gtk for
managing sources, so i would call this fixed.

All other things being equal, a solution that has zero user interface is
better than one that has non-zero user interface.
Could USC (or something else) watch /etc/apt/sources.list, and trigger
update-software-center whenever it changes?

That's probably possible, there may also be some other solutions that are
beyond my knowledge.
I'll have a chat to mvo and see if he has any better ideas on how to achieve
this, but we can press forward under the assumption that if possible, we'd like
to avoid any UI involvement at all.

Yes, I think the issue with this one is that the application cache of
software center is not updated until update-software-center runs.
Installing or removing the medibuntu repos runs this command in order to
fill Software Center with the new packages from those repos immediately.
Also, some
i think aaron's suggestion is a good one, possibly a hook into ppa-purge
and software-properties-gtk to write a 'last-modified' file containing a
timestamp that can be compared to a 'last-run-date' for update-software-
center, triggering an automatic run of update-software-center by USC

by Daniel Gnoutcheff's suggested command.

Can someone confirm that this is not an issue thanks to Glennz nl's
findings?
NACK. I've got an entry for a GStreamer-related PPA that I purged out a
long time ago (in all ways I can think of) but that won't go away from
software-center. Furthermore, I've got other PPAs that *do* dissappear
from
Manually running
$ sudo /usr/share/software-center/update-software-center
seems to have made the problem go away. Looks like this may have something to
do with software-center's xapian cache under /var/cache/software-center/.
BTW I did make a backup of /var/cache/software-center/ before running
I think I know what´s causing this:
I used some PPA´s which I removed, but I kept using the ppa version of the app
The software center keeps the ppa because you still use the ppa version.
After forcing the program back to the lucid version with synaptic, the
ppa disappears in the software center
