Hi Patrick, thanks for your report! This one has actually already been reported and we are tracking it at bug 712903, so I will mark this one as a duplicate of that one. If you check that bug you'll see that kiwinote has already fixed it \o/, and the fix will be available in the next development release of software-center.
