Public bug reported:
To reproduce this, purchase (and install) software in Software Centre.
Now, search for the package name exactly.
The same application will be listed twice: once for the actual installed
package with no icon; and again with the description you saw when you
purchased the software, with an icon and screenshots and a nice
description. (I am attaching a screenshot to show this).
This will also happen with a partial match, but then the excess result
(for the package) appears under Technical Items.
Some searches that I have verified behave like this:
- bastion
- amnesia
- swordandsworcery
- worldofgoo (though I didn't actually buy this one through SC, so maybe it
could be sane in some cases?)
I noticed one exception so far: Limbo. That happens because the package
is named ia32-limbo, so a search for "limbo" isn't an exact match for
that and a search for the package name doesn't match the fancy
description from the store.
