In 10.10, banshee-extension-magnatune 1.8.0-1ubuntu1~maverick1 does not
show up as an add-on for Banshee. If that's fixed in Natty, then great.

As for the original complaint, of opening USC and searching for
"magnatune", the issue there is that (a) Amarok has a .desktop file, (b)
Amarok's package description specifically mentions Magnatune, and (c)
whenever search results include an item that has a .desktop file, USC by
default hides as "technical items" any results that don't have one.

So, if you want either Banshee *or* the Banshee Magnatune extension to show up 
by default in USC when searching for "magnatune" (either of which would make 
the extension easy to find), there are five possibilities I can think of:
(1) Add a .desktop file to the banshee-extension-magnatune package.
(2) Remove the .desktop file from the amarok package. Obviously that won't 
happen.
(3) Remove the word "Magnatune" from Amarok's package description. The Amarok 
developers probably aren't interested in that either.
(4) Add the word "Magnatune" somewhere appropriate in Banshee's package 
description.
(5) Change USC's search algorithm so that it returns Banshee when searching for 
"Magnatune" simply because the word "Magnatune" is in the title of one of the 
add-ons.
