Title:
  [Maverick] screenshot issues with For Purchase apps

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “software-center” source package in Maverick:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Software Center version 3.0.8, Ubuntu Maverick

  Due to changes in the way that screenshots are stored on the server
  for For Purchase items, two problems have appeared with screenshots in
  the details view of Software Center in Maverick (note that Natty and
  Oneiric are fine). These problems are:

    1. For the majority of applications in the For Purchase section, screenshots are missing completely.
    2. For those few apps for which screenshots do appear (currently Bullet Candy Perfect,Family Farm and Irukandji), the corresponding thumbnail in the details view in Software Center is way oversized and does not fit in the window (see attached screenshot).

  TEST CASE for SRU:

  1. While running Maverick, install Software Center version 3.0.9 from maverick-proposed.
  2. Open Software Center and click the "For Purchase" node in the left navigation pane.
  3. Choose either Bullet Candy Perfect or Family Farm in the list and click "More Info" to view the details view for the app.
  4. Verify that a properly-sized screenshot thumbnail appears in the view (refer to attachment "SoftwareCenterCorrectlySizedThumbnail.png").
  5. Click the thumbnail and verify that the full-size screenshot is displayed.
  6. Check the other apps in the For Purchase list and verify that each has a screenshot thumbnail and that the full-size screenshot can be viewed.
