Title:
  Sort by name sorts by description

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Version: software-center 5.2.3 (from Ubuntu 12.04 on amd64)

  Having searched for a fragment of a package name, I wanted to sort the
  results by package name. Sadly, selecting sort "By Name" in the
  dropdown list in fact sorts the results by the first line of the
  Description from the debfile. Please rename "Sort By Name" to be less
  confusing and add a "Sort By Package Name" or similar.

  Workaround: install synaptic.
