Bug Description

Wanted to install an app from https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/oneiric/wireframesketcherstudio/ by clicking the "purchase" link.

Software centre can't find the app in my sources (which is fine) and it tells me this, but then shows two reviews. The reviews seem out of place given it can't find the app.

See screenshot.

Hi Alan,
please, can you try to delete or rename the /home/.cache/software-center folder?
It worked for me!
