This bug has a lot of duplicates, so the effect of this bug is fairly noticeable to several users. Still present in 13.04
@jpugh Login to verify "subscription" on a free "commercial" app does not make sense. It is also poorly aligned with the general F/OSS policy. If this behaviour is something forced on Canonical by the commercial companies behind these applications, then this should be clarified to the user, as to not appear as a forced recruitment for Ubuntu One. I don't expect to have to accept additional terms of services, and create and login to an account to install FREE/GRATIS software on a F/OSS operating system. I hope the bug here is just the misplacing of the buy-button and the forced login that comes with it. If not, then we are done, Ubuntu. Then we are done. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968974 Title: Some free applications looks like paid applications with price 0.00 and with buy button To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/968974/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
