Public bug reported:

Summary:

If a Chinese end user wants to find the office application (i.e. Libre
Office), it should be easy for them to type in "office" in both English
and Chinese and see the resultant applications.   On an English desktop,
this works.  On a Chinese-translated desktop, this doesn't work unless
the user explicitly types "libre" or "libreoffice" in the search bar.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install 11.10.
2) Make Simplified Chinese the default language.
3) Boot into either unity 2d or unity.
4) Click the lens button and type "office" in either English or Chinese.

Actual Results: Nothing is returned if "office" is typed into the search bar.
Expected Results: Users should see a list of office applications in the search 
results like they would for an English desktop. 

I will also attach screenshots of what a Chinese user sees when
attempting to type 'office' into the search bar.

I'm not sure if this is a Unity issue or a translation problem with
LibreOffice (or both).  Please forward to the appropriate teams if this
is not a Unity problem.  Thanks.
