Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

1. Gnome-app-install's search does not search from the .desktop entries'
Comment fields at all. Ie. I cannot find tracker by searching either for
the English string "locate documents" or the translation "paikanna
asiakirjoja" which are available in the Comment field of the .desktop
files.

2. Search only searches the English Name field of the .desktop files.
Ie. I can search for "extras", but I can't search for the Finnish
"lisäosat" which is available now (I downloaded app-install-data PO
file, made it into MO file and copied into locale-
langpack/fi/LC_MESSAGES, since new language packs haven't appeared yet).
The Finnish term is shown in the UI, though.

Note that the short description (from Debian package descriptions),
shown in the info window as secondary title, is searched for correctly.
However, the Comment field often contains useful search terms, and
searching for localized Name would also be useful.
