Bug Description
When selecting pidgin in Software Center in precise, I'm offered kdebase-
Transitional package for kde-workspace-bin
I think that S-C should try to either show the depended on package or igonre transitional packages..
This issue still occurs in quantal in 5.4.1.1
In theory, transitional packages shouldn't be left as suggests, but that's another problem :)
