Bug Description

For some categories, translations don't show up in the main window part below an app title. For example: "role-playing" or "books & magazines" are translated and their translations are shown in the categories list but not below apps like "Star Shipping Inc." which is currently in the New-section.

Thanks for your bugreport.

This is indeed the case. It appears there is a mismatch between the client strings and the software-center-agent server strings.
The client has "Role Playing" as the translatable name, but the server sends "Role-Playing". One fix would be if the server would simply send "Role Playing" in this case.
