3) I expected Software Center to launch when I clicked the icon in the Unity Launcher. When it did not, I expected it to launch after entering "software-center" in the terminal.
4) On clicking Unity launcher, icon flashed; Software Center did not launch. On trying to start from terminal, the attached error report was generated.
tim@tim-desktop:~$ software-center
