"Reinstall Previous Purchases" adds an item to the navigation pane

[Gary Lasker]

Binary package hint: software-center

Ubuntu Software Center 2.1.14.2, Ubuntu Maverick

Ug, I just noticed that we still have a generic icon for the "Previous Purchase" item in the left nav pane, so we either need to create a new custom one or find a suitable one in the theme (I'll take a look). Note that this item becomes visible when selecting the "Edit->Reinstall Previous Purchases..." menu item.

Screenshot attached.

Assign to mpt initially. Thanks!

I'm sorry I forgot to specify this detail earlier. I've just fixed it: "Whenever this screen is displayed, the top-level “Get Software” item should be selected in the navigation pane (as it is when viewing a department screen, for example)." <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter?action=diff&rev2=429&rev1=428>
