Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.4-3
1. From Debian "testing" with gnome, open the Software app.
2. Search for 'vlc'
What happens:
------------------
No results for vlc
What should happen:
------------------
vlc should be in the results
Suggested fix
------------------
http://appstream.ubuntu.com/yakkety/universe/issues/vlc.html
Debian also has an appstream issues page but maybe the generator needs
updating: https://appstream.debian.org/sid/main/issues/vlc.html
I think this could be fixed if vlc depended on vlc-data. vlc provides
the binary and the .desktop but vlc-data is needed for the app icons.
