@stuardo: The reason for Guake being missing is that the `guake.desktop` file in `/usr/share/applications` is a symbolic link *and* the application doesn't ship a metainfo file. This is forbidden: https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines The .desktop file being a symlink results in Guake basically not being seen by the metadata generator at all. To fix this, either the .desktop file needs to be an actual file, and not a symlink, or a metainfo file[1] has to be shipped with this package. Ideally both.
The reason this package is missing is simply a result of nobody caring enough to submit a patch or do a bit of work to make this app show up for a few years now (it never was in the catalog, as far as I can tell). Maybe a good case for a patch submission? ;-) [1]: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/metainfocreator/#/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825766 Title: search results don't match apt search To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1825766/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
