Title:
  software center is not able to find many server packages

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The software center search function is not able to find server related
  packages.

  For example you can give "apache2" to the search field and see that there will come up no hits.
  Or try "phpmyadmin" for database administration.

  This can be done with all packages that goes in a more
  administrativ/profesional sector of the system.

  So, in moment software-center is for those people not a alternative to
  synaptic package manager, which has  a much more advanced search
  function, or command line.

  You can see this as wish and mark as such.
