successful installation. One thing that has always bugged me about mintinstall is that after a package has been successfully installed, mintinstall continues to show "not installed" rather than changing to "installed" with a remove button, until that package is searched for again.
This is counter-intuitive and likely to cause naive users to think that the installation was not successful. In fact, every user I have ever introduced to Mint has commented on this.

You might want to post this an idea on the community site?
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

Software Manager Not Refreshing after install or remove
by mintystark on Sat Jan 07, 2012 4:38 am
Why doesn't it automatically refresh after it's done.
Everything works fine, but it is extremely anoying.
The progress bar loads to 100% then back to 0%, but the item still shows as not installed.
I am currently using LMDE with XFCE.
However I noticed the exact same issue with LM 11 XFCE.
On both installations I thought maybe I didn't have the most upto date, so I have run all Updates and upgrades.
I even uninstalled Mintinstall and re-installed it. Still doesn't refresh.
