xubuntu 18.04
I'm an old xubuntu user, new xubuntu install on new computer. When I went to install the apps that I use that aren't part of the distro (emacs, qmapshack, octave, gnucash, ..) , I didn't see synaptics package manager, but I found something just called 'software' in the applications dropdown (gnome-software). When I selected 'all' and searched, most of the of the apps that I wanted to install weren't listed. I'm used to using synaptics package manager & that wasn't installed. I Installed it and everthing works as expected.
Did I miss something? Shouldn't synaptics package manager be part of the xubuntu install? Should gnome-software show more packages? Now that I installed synaptics package manager gnome-software doesn't show up in the apps list.
