I tested this on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with gnome-software 3.20.1+git20170208.0.a34b091-0ubuntu1~xenial1 (still in xenial-proposed today). I enabled -proposed updates. unity-control-center shows in gnome-software as "Text Entry" on my computer. Ok, maybe I should install the updated unity-control-center (I think if this bug were fixed, that wouldn't actually be necessary).
I installed the updated unity-control-center, ran 'pkill gnome-software' and tried again. Same result. I ran 'sudo rm -rf /var/cache/app-info; sudo rm -rf /var/lib/app-info; sudo appstreamcli refresh'. After killing gnome-software, I got the same result.

This is dangerously confusing, as average user can easily remove control center without knowing it. I propose disabling gnome-control-center removal from Ubuntu Software by moving it to "System Applications" section. [Test Case] 1. From a terminal run: $ gnome-software --details-pkg unity-control-center Observed result: The title/description is from one of the panels inside u-c-c, e.g. "Wacom Tablet" or "Universal Access". Expected result: The title and description should be for unity-control-center. NOTE: This requires the appdata to be updated and re-downloaded before this can occur. [Regression Potential] Low, we now just distribute appdata information.
