---------------
software-center (4.1.7) oneiric; urgency=low

  [ Aaron Peachey ]
  * Add fake-review API that can be used for GUI testing and
    automatic testing without actually hitting the network.
    Can be enabled with the SOFTWARE_CENTER_FAKE_REVIEW_API=1
    environment
  * add support to remove/modify reviews, this requires the
    new rnrserver in production

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * merged lp:~aaronp/software-center/tests, many thanks
  * merged lp:~mvo/software-center/piston-sc-agent:
    This move the SoftwareCenterAgent support from restfulclient
    to piston-mini-client and adds a new SpawnHelper abstraction.
    It also adds a new SOFTWARE_CENTER_AGENT_INCLUDE_QA environment
    to get apps in QA (if you are in the right group)
  * remove get_http_proxy_string_from_gconf and remove python-gconf
    dependency

  [ Gary Lasker ]

    handling for LinkButton, many thanks to Robert Roth (LP: #796640)

Title:
  Add custom desktop key for USC-specific display names

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm the maintainer of Deja Dup.  And for this 11.10 cycle, I've
  renamed how Deja Dup presents itself in the UI to be more "invisible".
  Specifically, I've changed its menu entry to "Backup" instead of "Deja
  Dup Backup Tool".

  But now, in USC, it shows up as merely "Backup".  In the USC context,
  I think it makes sense to be more verbose, since one wants a user to
  know which backup program they are looking at among all the apps in
  the Center.

  But once installed, it matters less.  The UI will likely only ever
  present one Backup program, just as it usually presents one Terminal
  or one Calculator.

  So there is a use case for separate names in USC and once installed.
  Could a key like X-Ubuntu-Software-Center-Name be added?
