Uninstalled software [still] appears as "installed" [after uninstallation]

[Jeb E.]

gnome-software center for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is not removing Gnome Extensions and programs from the "installed" list after I remove/uninstall them.
In addition, newly installed Gnome Extensions are not appearing as "installed."

Just tested in a clean bionic VM.

I'm not seeing gnome shell extensions listed in the "Installed" section, not sure whether they are supposed to show up there?
As for regular applications, I removed vim, and it disappeared from the list, as expected.

@Jeb: can you describe a concrete use case where you remove an application and it's still listed in the "Installed" section?

Hey @olivier.tilloy,

Waiting for other installations to finish followed by a restart of the
machine resolved the issue.
