Version number shown as "unknown" for commercial items

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

software-center-gtk3 trunk r2209, Ubuntu Ocelot

(Until one of the real for-purchase items is published for Ocelot, you will need to be a member of the commercial QA team to reproduce this bug.)

1. Select one of the for-purchase items.
2. Look at the "Version" details.

What you see: Text of the form "hellox (unknown version)"
What you should see: Text of the form "hellox 1.0"

[Kiwinote (kiwinote)]

We don't actually get version information from the server (see https://software-center.ubuntu.com/api/2.0/applications/en/ubuntu/natty/i386/).

On a side note, you can edit softwarecenter/distro/__init__.py: get_codename to always return natty if you want to test for purchase in oneiric. You then run software-center such that we generate a db, then you can edit the file back and the natty db will hang around due to a caching bug.
