Ubuntu Software Center is so sl-o-o-o-o-w... Seriously, I can launch a virtual machine with some Windows apps faster than it takes Software Center to load!
I dislike Software Center so much I installed Synaptic ages ago, and that loads in 2 seconds! Perfect. Well almost - I can't seem to open downloaded .debs with it. Can I change things so that Synaptic opens .debs by default?
For Applications management, Linux Mint 13 has Software Manager by default. Synaptic Package Manager is also there, but most beginners prefer Software Manager (over the synaptic or command line utility).
In Ubuntu, beginners prefer - Ubuntu Software Center, it’s easy to use and it has a lot of exciting features.
I'm trying to download master-pdf-editor package from official repositories. All sites report that it's easy to do: just download it from ubuntu software center.
I can't install the software center, so I'm trying to install it via apt-get or synaptic, but I can't find the package in the repos...
Can anyone help?

Code:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall software-center
In earlier Ubuntu version, when you double click on a .deb file, it launches GDebi and install the package. Now GDebi has been dropped and Ubuntu Software Center takes the place to install deb package. This simple tutorial will show you how to replace Software Center with the old GDebi to install .deb package in Ubuntu 12.04.
First, install GDebi.

I'm using backTrack5R3. And I 've installed Synaptic as well as ubuntu Software center. Synaptic is very easy to use and gives wide range of details for the packages that I'm going to download. But the problem is it lack of lot of new files and information. Like vlc or adobe reader. The latest stable version of vlc is 2.0. but synaptic only installs, 1.1.
