[Dario Ruellan]

Test case:
 - Open Software Center
 - Search for "lens"
 - Ask Ubuntu lens not only shows twice, but has a different icon and description.

The correct icon should be the orange one (check attach)
The correct description should be some thing like this (please recheck):

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hmm... this doesn't show up in quantal. Perhaps this is only an issue with precise.

[Dario Ruellan (druellan)]

I rechecked and can confirm still an issue on Precise.

[Nekhelesh Ramananthan (nik90)]

I can confirm this issue on Precise. Hence marking confirmed in the paper cuts project.

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

Well when I look at apps directory I see only one entry in precise and quantal respectively and it doesnt show duplication in quantal in USC

https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/search/precise/?q=askubuntu

https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/search/quantal/?q=askubuntu

furthermore in the extras repository there is one release for oneiric and precise each

https://launchpad.net/~app-review-board/+archive/ppa/+packages

setting as incomplete wrt the App review board.

Thanks Bhavani.

There is also an Oneric entry that does not show on the global search: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/search/?q=askubuntu but its there if you specify distro: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/search/oneiric/?q=askubuntu

This entry also has one of the icons you can see duplicated on the Software Center, perhaps it was badly tagged?

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

Hello Dario,

Thanks for the comment. I'm not able to judge it as I'm on quantal and its fine here.

'software-center' is no longer included in any currently supported release of Ubuntu so closing as this bug report is no longer valid.
