There's nothing to do with lenses, I am reporting that the bug happens from the system menu. Not duplicate.

Hi Laudeci! Although the symptoms are different, both the applications lens and the system menu launch software-center in the same way. We can fix this within the software-center codebase (as Gary has already done!), so this means that we can fix both these issues by the same change in our code - this is the reason that I marked this bug a duplicate of the other despite the bugs having different symptoms. Thanks for your interest!
