mintInstall 7.1.5: speed improvements

,----[ Quote ]
| A new version of the Software Manager is 
| available in the repository. You can use the 
| Update Manager to upgrade to it.
| 
| The Software Manager was rewritten from 
| scratch in Linux Mint 9. Itâs a very complex 
| application, and it can be improved in many 
| ways. Today we tackled the time it takes for 
| the application to start. Basically it needs 
| to process some 30,000 packages, a growing 
| number of comments (weâre receiving about 200 
| comments per day at the moment) and match all 
| that in categories and do some other fancy 
| processingâ Because of all this, itâs far from 
| being immediate.

| In addition to the use of SLAB, Mint has its
| own Software Manager as well as its own
| Software Updater that look different and are
| more streamlined than Ubuntuâs. Mint also
| includes its own software/file backup tool.
