Komposer (Web Development) disappeared from my Kubuntu Linux system during the uprade from 12.04 to 12.10. Kompozer is still listed on Muon Software Center, but when install button is pressed, it begins to install but the install button returns very quickly, with no indication that the install occurred. Were binaries provided for the Ubuntu 12.10 repository? Reproducible: Always
Kompozer was removed for 12.10 because it wouldn't build anymore, and therefore couldn't be properly maintained by Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kompozer/+bug/1065547 The bug here is that locally-referenced uninstalled packages that can no longer be downloaded are showing up in the Software Center.
Git commit 1bf2b56c72683f2f7fcc043004e6c1cbbb42da6e by Jonathan Thomas. Committed on 31/10/2012 at 02:05. Pushed by jmthomas into branch 'master'. Do not show packages that exist but that are not installed and not downloadable. This can happen if app-install-data is not kept in sync with package removals from a Debian archive.
