[Bug 597227] Should Metacity really show up as a program in Software Center instead of a system package?

[Pedro Villavicencio]

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or
feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an
issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May
you please test with that version and comment back if you're still
having or not the issue? Please have a look at
http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.

Title:
  Should Metacity really show up as a program in Software Center instead
  of a system package?

Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Since Metacity shows up as a program, it also shows up in the
  "Installed Software" list, so any user can be looking through the
  installed software and think, "Metacity? GTK window manager? What's
  that? I don't need that!" and remove it, which I'm sure would cause
  some serious problems if that user decided to turn off visual effects
  or never had them on in the first place. Also, Metacity seems more
  like a system package than a program.

  (And by the way, I don't think every word needs to be capitalized in
  some parts of Software Center, like "Get Software" and "Installed
  Software.")
