Bug Description

I'm using the new software center version in oneiric.

When i browse the page of a single software in the software center the search bar isn't showed so if i want to search for a new software i need to use the back arrow and start searching againg

I think that we should add the search bar in every page..

Hi Matteo! Thanks for your bug report. So this bug report is contradictory to bug 828790 which we recently implemented. The other bug explicitly requests for the search box to be removed from the detail views. As you can read in the other bug report, the reason for this is as follows:
"The search field should not be visible.
This is because the scope of the search would be undefined: it could be text in the software item screen itself, software items in the subcategory, the category, the Top Rated section, or everything."
Please continue to report any bugs you may find in software-center. Thanks again for your help!
