** Description changed: When an application is searched for (or accessed directly through the command line or an apt:// link) if the app is not in the current list of available apps then a simple "Not Found" screen is displayed. This has one issue: 3 seconds after USC has started up, it updates the list of apps available from MyApps, at which point it could happen to receive an app that matches the given package name. If this happens, the "Not Found" screen will be replaced with the application view. This is a bit confusing, as the "Not found" screen really sounds final. It would be better to display a spinner until the list of apps available from MyApps has finished updating, at which point the spinner can be replaced by either a "Really not found" ( :P ) screen, or the app that was just found. + + See also bug 1037243.
