I tried several methods (apt install, dpkg -i, xdg-open then click on install button). * After the installation, I control that the application is visible from the system: * The application appears correctly in the application list in Unity Dash * The application appears in the "Open With" menu list in Nautilus (because of registered mime types) * The package name of the application can be used as an argument of apt commands (apt show, apt remove...) and dpkg (dpkg -l, dpkg -L...) * I start gnome-software. * I click on the "installed" tab to get the list of installed applications. expected result: the freshly installed application is in the list actual result: the freshly installed application is not in the list. If I reboot my computer and start gnome-software, the installed application appears in the list. It looks like there is some kind of cache that is not refreshed at the right moment.
