[Bug 920377] Re: Can not find pcmanx-gtk2 by searching 'pcman'.

 

@vdragon

 - that issue is not 'only' affecting that app, many others also are; making that one useless
 - software-center is badly and uncomplatedly designed, and fixes are rarely done, so if that pleased you to get it opened, i've the feeling it will not be fixed when Precise will reach EOL anyway.
 - in fact comment # 5 above explain how badly that app was designed.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Can not find pcmanx-gtk2 by searching 'pcman'.

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  software-center 5.2.5, Ubuntu 12.04
  software-center 5.6.0-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu 13.04

  When we search pcmanx-gtk2 by keyword 'pcman', we can not find pcmanx-gtk2 in Ubuntu Software Center.
  But we can find its fork, i.e. gemanx-gtk2.
  This is very weird because gemanx-gtk2 and pcmanx-gtk2 should have the same result especially when their code bases are almost the same.
  There is an upstream bug report at http://code.google.com/p/pcmanx-gtk2/issues/detail?id=27 .
