Bug Description

I'm not able to launch some applications with Alt+F2.

Trying to launch psi; in terminal, it is found in the following location:

$ which psi
/usr/bin/psi

I'm able to launch psi from the terminal.

When I press Alt+F2 and type "psi", I only see "psidtopgm" in the results; there is no "psi" to launch.

Pressing enter would actually launch PSI. This is a bug, which has already been reported elsewhere, that the Alt+F2 dash doesn't display the icon for the exact match of thecurrent entry in the box, instead it just displays the closest matches.
