Bug Description

software-center 2.5.2

app-data-install-partner is NOT installed.

launch s-c from dash.

in s-c GUI, select: All Software > Canonical Partners

Then try to install one of the listed apps, for example, acroread. You go through quite a few steps (accept agreement, SSO, authenticate) but then end up with software-center presenting a blank white screen.

However, if you install app-install-data-partner (and reboot), one can complete the installation from partner without issues.

Propose either:
 * software-center should depend on app-install-data-partner
 * software-center should NOT expose Canonical Partners in GUI unless app-install-data-partner is installed.
