Public bug reported: This happens on the latest GNOME Software 3.34.2 on Ubuntu Focal. Manually installed deb package (that does not contain any AppData), for example Steam from Valve (https://store.steampowered.com/about/), cannot be uninstalled using Ubuntu Software. The manually installed package appears under Add-ons section on the Installed tab, but it is gone after Ubuntu Software is restarted. When right clicking the Steam icon in GNOME Shell Overview mode and selecting "Show Details", details page with Ubuntu repository version of steam-launcher is displayed instead. The only way to remove the deb package using GUI is downloading it again, clicking "Install", then clicking "Remove" before closing the app details page.
