Have retested in with the upgraded system.
For phpmyadmin it is completely gone.
Apache is different.
When I use the phrase "apache" Software-Center is not able to find the
apache server.
When I use the phrase "apache2" it is able to find the server.
This is overspecific for a search function.
I have failed on this also in the past. Who would think of the 2 at the
end of apache?!

Title:
software center is not able to find many server packages -
DatabaseOpeningError: Couldn't stat '/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/index'
(No such file or directory)
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
New
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.
