I´am playing with Software Center's API, after seeing this post on askubuntu.
My question is: how can I get a list of all Ubuntu Software Center's apps?
From the other question I get this endpoint for retrieving all apps: http://software-center.ubuntu.com/api/2.0/applications/any/ubuntu/any/any/
But the problem is it looks like it only returns 580 apps.
But on appnr.com it seems their a lot m
Ubuntu Tweak 0.8.0 has been released with a new 'Apps' category that lets you browse and install applications, much like Ubuntu Software Center.
Ubuntu Tweak's app center has two key differences from USC:

I've recently decided to try not to support any proprietary software, and see how far I can go with Free software.
Despite this, I realize Free software costs money to make, and would be happy to pay for some. Is there any way to sort through the software in Ubuntu Software Center to find some, or if not, what applications are there are there? (Examples would be great)
Thanks!
When I download software from the Ubuntu Software Centre, is that software automatically updated when a newer version is released and added to the centre by the developer?
I know PPAs automatically update when you perform an update in the terminal, but what about the software from the Ubuntu Software Centre?
I can't seem to find any definite answer to this so any help would be appreciated.

hello,

The title pretty much says it. I attempted to download steam from the Software Centre, but it gave me an error (something along the lines of "Cannot reach source: apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/steam64/", I didn't write it down). I tried reconnecting, but that didn't work. When I restarted the software centre, the entry for Steam (64-bit) had vanished.
I have made a Kakuro game called Sukaro for Ubuntu 11.10 and its successfully published in the Software Center (Its a commercial app).
And so far, I have not seen any advertisements (on websites, etc) regarding Ubuntu applications. So I was wondering, if you want to promote your published app, what should you do?
I'm concerned about the amount of proprietary software that seems to be part of Ubuntu now.
