** Description changed: on unity 11.04,11.10 seraching for game, internet or such generic keywords in the lenses does not show all relevant applications.. this is a showstopper bug for me and other people i talked to i understand the difficulty of insuffiecient metadata for applications but escpecially for newbys and non-geeks this is at least a big MUST. You DO have descriptions and categories in software center.. can't these info be used in the lens too? Desired solution: Stick to the X-GNOME-Keywords field in the .desktop files, but improve the indexed data. - - Minimally: Assure that key apps have good keywords in their packages - - Best: Get the word out to have upstreams put good data in there. Help upstreams getting this done. + - Minimally: Assure that key apps have good keywords in their packages + - Best: Get the word out to have upstreams put good data in there. Help upstreams getting this done. + + Also: + 12:51:48 Trevinho what about not only considering the Keywords .desktop file field (that is alredy supported, for applications that specify it) but also the category of each application? + 12:52:23 Trevinho I mean, if I search for internet or games, I expect that all the programs under that category are shown into the dash, isn't it? + 12:53:39 Trevinho Of course, programs that have full matching (ie. name contains that string) would get the priority, but if I search for System I expect that all the applications under System category are shown, not only System Monitor for example... + 13:21:02 JohnLea yes considering the category of the application would be an improvement -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810412 Title: Dash - searching for generic keywords in unity lens doesn't yeld (all) results To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/810412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
