Bug Description

When i try to install "dia-gnome" via softwarecenter it does not work at all and shows a weird package name
"dia-gnome-gnome-gnome-gnome-....."

to reproduce:

1) open software-center
2) search for dia-gnome
3) click on "additional information" (maybe not the exact translation. I'm using the german version button which is labeled "Weitere Informationen"

expected result:
after the search for dia-gnome the result should appear and after selecting it a install button should appear. when you click "additional Information" ("Weitere Informationen" in my case) a detailed package information should show up.

actual result:
after searching dia-gnome no button shows up when the result is selected. when clicking the button for the detailed page the software-center shows a weird package name "dia-gnome" with "-gnome" attached multiple times.

I forgot to add that the package is still installable via terminal. So it's not my package database that is messed up but the software-center somehow.
