[Test Case] 1. Open GNOME Software 2. Select "Games" category at the bottom of the page. 3. Select "All" 4. Look for pin-town (a snap game) Expected result: Game is shown Observed result: Game is not shown. [Regression Potential] Loading snap information in category screens could trigger new bugs. 1- I uploaded a snap on myapps.developer.ubuntu.com 2- I choose Category: Games (note that I cannot choose a sub-category (Kids)) 3- Default type: ? (I choose application, but not sure what it does exactly) 4- Opening Ubuntu Software on Ubuntu 16.04 I can find and install it when using the search bar 5- BUT my application is not listed in any categories, not even in Games - All 6- After installing the application, I can see it listed in Games - Kids (because the .desktop file have this entry Categories=Game;KidsGame?) Looks like only .deb are listed in categories within Ubuntu Software?
