Public bug reported:

When a user tries to open the menu that is on the top, next to
Activities button, and clicks "Show Details", it opens GNOME Software,
but stays on the loading bar for a while then it says "Unable to find
firefox.desktop".

However, if I opened GNOME Software to search for Firefox, there are two
entries for Firefox, one from Ubuntu repo, one from Snap. I know that
Firefox existed on GNOME Software, but it seems weird that it won't be
able to search for "firefox.desktop."
