Bug Description

Binary package hint: plasma-netbook

This bug applies to the 'search and launch containment' of the otherwise brilliant plasma-netbook as distributed with Kubuntu 10.04 Netbook Remix.

I have an issue with application icons getting repeated in the search results, for instance after I install new software. I perform the following steps:

1. Install new application package
2. Start typing name of the new application in the search box of the search and launch containment

What I expected to happen is for the application icon to appear once on the screen

What happened instead is that the application icon appears two or more times.

Some info I forgot to add that might be relevant:

The last time this issue happened to me the package I tried to install was, I believe, a Gnome-based package (mythtv-frontend).
I do not recall whether or not this was also so in the earlier instances the issue happened to me.
