Title:
  packages index is not in /var/cache/software-center with Ubuntu Xenial

Status in unity-lens-applications package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi

  System: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial)

  The Unity Dash applications lens does not propose "suggestions" for
  existing but not installed software. Only installed softwares are
  shown.

  I found the error :
  com.canonical.Unity.Scope.Applications[3235]: Error loading package indexes: Couldn't stat '/var/cache/software-center/xapian'
  com.canonical.Unity.Scope.Applications[3235]: (unity-scope-loader:3994): unity-applications-daemon-CRITICAL **: daemon.vala:144: Failed to load Software Center index. 'Apps Available for Download' will not be listed

  applications scope searching for packages index in "/var/cache
  /software-center/xapian" but this folder does not exists in Ubuntu
  16.04 LTS.

  Cheers
  Cyrille
