searching for GIMP does not show GIMP as the first result
SUMMARY
The new fuzzy search in Krunner as part of Plasma 6.5 (downloaded from here:
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-kde-early-plasma-6-5-0/169599 )
is great and something I like very much, but it should prioritize exact matches
over fuzzy matches.
In this case it is prioritizing LibreOffice Impress, probably because of the
"imp" matching, over GIMP itself. This is partly because GIMP is called GNU
Image Manipulation Program, but "gimp" is in the Keywords section of the
relevant file (/usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop) so it should check for
that exact match first.
OBSERVED RESULT
LibreOffice Impress is first in the list.
EXPECTED RESULT
GIMP should be first in the list.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora Linux 42
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.9.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It's relatively straightforward to modify aforementioned gimp.desktop to have
GIMP at the front of it in clear and unmissable letters under the Name= field,
but it probably shouldn't do this in the first place.
Very similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511235 and
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511237 , but this is specifically about
finding an exact match in the Keywords section of the relevant .desktop file
