On the Add/Remove Adept, software called "Krita" for Gimp packages

Bug Description

I'm working on (K)ubuntu 8.10, alpha (I upgraded to 4th, but it must be the 5th right now).

The matter is that on the Adept Add/Remove, there are two "Krita"s, one for the real Krita, and other that installs Gimp. Actually this last one has the Gimp description. There also a package called "Gimp", for Gimp installation.

Looking for "Krita" at adept installer Edit (111.3 KiB, image/jpeg)

OK, this is very strange. I just closed and opened adept installer, to see if the Krita-Gimp package would disappear. And that's what I've got searchinf for Krita: (see attachement).

Krita-kde4 is providing a desktop it shouldn't, which causes the 3rd duplicate. The other two are due to the .desktop in /usr/share/app-install-data for krita and krita-kde4 sharing the same package name.

The point it that this has happened again, this time with another aplication, so I think the problem is the search engine that Adept Installer uses. I attach one more sccreenshot. It seems to happen when I search for something, and then, when I search another time for something, old and new searchs get mixed.

There are two issues in this bug report with similar effects. Krita, krita-kde4, and krita-data all have the same name in their app-install-data entries which confuses adept and causes it to give all 3 applications the same descriptions. krita-data shouldn't be showing up here anyway, but that's another bug in krita.

The wrong-description bug is reproducible in my testing and indeed is a bug in adept. I will work on getting instructions to reproduce and forward this on up to upstream in a bit.

Steps to reproduce:
- Open Adept Installer
- Search for "worm"
- Click on the wormux package
- Search for "alien arena"

Alien arena's package description will now be that of wormux.

Removing redundant adept tag since this bug already shows up in adept's buglist.
Removing krita & gimp tags since this bug doesn't really have much to do with krita or gimp.

Fix released in adept 3.0~beta4ubuntu4.
Note that the app-install-data found while reporting this bug have not been fixed. They have separate bug reports filed somewhere.
