@ximion thank you for your comments. I understand the symlink issue. I'm now digging in the github/guake issues, and it looks like the solutionw as to include the appdata file. Now I have the following questions:
1. Is the apppdata enought? OR both the appdata AND symlink issues need to be solved? 2. The appdata file in the package is at /usr/share/guake/data/guake.appdata.xml I see other programs adding the appdata at /usrh/share/appdata/ like /usr/share/appdata/google-chrome.appdata.xml or /usr/share/appdata/network-manager-openvpn.metainfo.xml for example. Should the appdata file for guake be /usr/share/appdata/guake.xml? @ximion, you are right, a patch is missing, and it's time to work on that. I'll try to find the answers by myself, but if you have the answers, they will really be apreciated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825766 Title: search results don't match apt search Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: searching for "guake" does not show the "guake" package, but if I search it via apt, I do see it available.
