I have tested gnome-software to see the current state, compaired to gpk in
F19, there is a lot stuff there cant be done.

1. You cant install backgrounds / icons
2. Not all application found in the menu, can be found under installed, you
can search for them and find them, but cant remove them (ex. Document
viewer)
3. if you search for 'icons' you get at lot of wrong positives, where there
is no visible relation to icons in the text shown
4. Description is missing from almost every application.

This is just a few of the issues i have made bug reports on, but the main
question is gnome-software ready for the one an only software manager for
the primary
desktop for Fedora ?

I think the current state will make Fedora look limitted for new Fedora
users.

PS. Please dont turn this into a flame war for/against gnome :)
