Bug Description

1. Open software-centre
2. Search for "panorama"
3. The two first results are : "Panorama" and "Hugin"

What happens :
- The icons are very similar and so it seems to link to the same software,
- But in fact, when you retrieve more information about "Panorama" you get the description of the "Digikam" package.
(also, when you search for "digikam" you will get this wrong "Panorama" package as a result)
- The information about "Hugin" seems to be ok.

What should happen :
- Software-centre should only display one result : either "Panorama" or "Hugin",
- This result should link to the right package, Hugin.

Hi! Without knowing any specifics about the software, it seems that digikam ships an application called 'panorama'. This seems a different panorama program than hugin, hence a valid search result when searching for 'panorama'.

Yep, indeed Digikam uses Hugin as a panorama tool (see http://userbase.kde.org/Digikam/Panorama).
But why "Panorama" links to the "digikam 2:2.1.1-0ubuntu1" package then ?

We have three packages instead of two in the software-center :
- Digikam linked with Digikam description and package : OK
- Hugin linked with Hugin description and package : OK
- Hugin linked with Digikam description and package : NOK
