Bug Description

Hi Ive always used Synaptic, and due to Software unable to reliably search.
Search is another bug in Software - not always reliably shows contents of repos.

I use Synaptic more often than Software, and notice that when I do a ‘mark all upgrades’ in Synaptic, it shows lots of updates, whereas Software is showing its up-to-date. Both package managers have identical repositories and settings. Before Mark All Upgrades I do: reload package info, unmark all.
Perhaps this is related to the faulty search function in Software?
