Bug ID: 473886
Summary: Irrelevant search results in KRunner when searching
for Gnome apps
Classification: Plasma
Product: krunner
Version: 5.27.7
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: openmind...@gmail.com
CC: alexander.loh...@gmx.de, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 161257

Incomplete search result
SUMMARY
Since around 5.27 KRunner and Kickoff do not provide relevant results when
searching some Gnome's application by its binary name, like 'disks' -- meaning
'gnome-disks', or 'virt' -- meaning 'virt-manager', until you enter a full name
of app's executable, e.g. 'gnome-disks', but even then search results won't
show a proper icon of the application, just a gear next to the text like 'Run
%executable_name%'.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Switch language to something other than English (and probably even
non-West-European)
2. Open Kickoff, start typing some Gnome app's exec name you might have
installed
3. See 0 hits or completely not what you have expected
OBSERVED RESULT
Irrelevant search results
EXPECTED RESULT
Entries of apps with that typed string present in the filename of their
binaries
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
Manjaro Linux latest possible (Unstable)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.57.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This happens to systems where English is NOT the default language. When
searching using person's native language (e.g. 'диски' meaning 'gnome-disks'),
one sees expected search result with right app on top of the list.
