Public bug reported:

I needed to re-install recordmydesktop for some debug usage and opened
up the Software Center in Xenial and attempted to do so.

Searches for 'recordmydesktop' in the software-center returned nothing,
as the screenshot shows.

However, it's plainly available if you do an apt-cache search:

bladernr@galactica:~$ apt-cache search recordmydesktop
gtk-recordmydesktop - Graphical frontend for recordMyDesktop screencast tool
recordmydesktop - Captures audio-video data of a Linux desktop session

So it seems that the software-center is not aware of some things (maybe
only in Universe?)
