            Bug ID: 408212
           Summary: Search gimp gets 2 hits. Old version at the top. New
                    version(snap) off the screen
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.15.5
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover

  Target Milestone: ---

The Gimp application appears twice in the search results for 'gimp'. 

PROBLEM: People will install the old version (2.8 bionic universe) because it
ist 1st on the list. They will miss the newer (snap) version 2.10 which is the
7th in  the list. 'OFF the screen' on my laptop!! 

Presumed CAUSE: The old one is titled "GNU Image Manipulation Program" the new
version (snap) is titled "GIMP".

SUGGESTION: The proper fix would have just one Gimp search result. Not
duplicating the description and images. With an option to choose which source
to install inside this single Gimp result. Have a default source for those who
do not know the difference. With an "Advanced" option for those who do. 

QUICK FIX: Rename the entries to be the same.  

NOTE: In Ubuntu 19.04 the Snap entry appears first.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Discover
2. Search for gimp
3. Look for all gimps in the search results
