Bug Description

using the software sync in the Ubuntu Software Center should give the user the option to select multiple programs at once for later batch-installation just like in Synaptic.

if i make a fresh installation of Ubuntu and like to have all, let's say 80 programs, installed again, i now have to install every program after the other having to wait while Software Center refreshes the software sync view after one program is installed or i have to use Synaptic to select all the packages that are shown in Software Center.

This is a very good suggestion and it has been suggested before in bug 877299, therefore I will set this one as a duplicate of that one. Please check that bug for progress of an implementation, and to add any more information, etc.

Many thanks!
