[Bug 874430] [NEW] applications don't provide tooltips on mouseover

[Satchit Bhogle]

Public bug reported:

OS: Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric stable
Application: Ubuntu Software Centre 5.0.1.4

Some of the applications on the All Software screen of the USC have very
long names, e.g. Steel Storm: Burning Retribution. These are truncated
when they exceed the space provided. However, when mousing over them, no
tooltip appears, meaning that the user has to click on the application
to find out its entire name.

** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
