Yes, you are right. The two software centres are designed differently.
Ubuntu Software Centre can show every package if you select so. GNOME
Software does not; it's by design to show only applications.

inxi is not listed because it's a script, not a GUI application. GNOME
Software is designed to show only applications. If you are familiar
enough to use scripts from the CLI, you can also use apt to install it.

Okay, looks like nobody does the archive-wide data-hunt, and all fix
their packaging or didn't have that problem (asked Arch, Fedora, got
fuzzy reply from OpenSUSE because I couldn't find someone directly
involved with this stuff).
So I would right now rather like to add an error hint warning
Thing is: If we allow those separations, we would also need to allow putting
the metainfo file in an arbitrary package, so in the end, in the worst case, we
need to run a global archive wide or dependency- and reverse-dependency based
search on the metainfo file, the .desktop file and icons.
At
That's what the TryExec= key is for, which evince has.
I'm still not convinced it is an error, but if people want to do the
work to the packages instead then that is fine.
You would do this:
1) Find .desktop file in package 'a'
2) Look for TryExec or Exec in that package
3) If not there,

Nope, because this would mean searching the *reverse dependencies* of a
package, or once again turning to the Contents file, which is always bead,
because, as you know, it's super-slow.
While I
On Debian evince is at least listed, so I'm not sure why that doesn't
work for us and I think it should (but see the next paragraph).
I think there's a second bug, besides it not being listed, that it will
try to install evince-common because that's what appstream says the
package is for
(Though now I need to double check if the reviews are source package
names or binary names...)

Also, I noticed the Ubuntu reviews are on the 'evince' package - there
are none on 'evince-common'. So moving the .desktop file also makes them
show correctly.

I built a local version with the .desktop file moved and the appstream
data manually edited and it worked.
I've made the packaging change here in lp:~robert-ancell/evince/ubuntu-lp1553156
Seb - can you give a second opinion if you think moving the .desktop file makes
sense and can you double

What's happing in this case:
1. The apt plugin states that evince-common is installed.
2. The appstream plugin attempts to find the metadata for this.
3. appstream-glib has multiple entries for the package "evince-common", it
picks the first one ("evince-psdocument").
4. evince-psdocument doesn't
