Bug Description
The default software tool "gnome-software" that ships with Ubuntu, doesn't even use the repositories that APT is setup.
What's the point in using such a ham-string software installation GUI tool if it won't even use the environment it's setup with?
So much software just can't be installed by this GUI tool, effectively rendering it useless to users who aren't okay with using the CLI.
Can we please get gnome-software to actually used the setup APT repositories for the environment? PLEASE?
And I mean, the default Canonical repos, universe, plus 3rd party PPAs and others.
Until then, this tool is a completely terrible choice for a default Software Installer tool.
