Bug Description

software-center trunk r1026, Ubuntu Maverick

1. software-center --enable-buy
2. Search for "hello".
3. Select the "Hello X Adventure" item.

What happens: The row displays a "More Info" button only.
What should happen: The row displays "More Info" and "Buy…" buttons.

Low importance, because most of the time when people want to buy something it will be from the software item screen.

Let me know what you think. @mpt: I didnt know the unicode for '...' so the 'Buy...' label needs that changed at least ;)

That's a good start, thanks. But it breaks when I click the "Buy..." button:

I have fixed the issue you raised, the purchase login dialog is now displayed. This will need more testing, as i don't want to purchase the pkg atm :P.

The branch does not handle the "install previously purchased" scenario. yet.
