Do you synchronize only with <packagename>.desktop or are you really
searching the packages for all .desktop files?

Are the .desktop files in /usr/share/app-install/desktop/ displayed
somewhere in the desktop's UI? In a menu, in a tool, ...?

Currently, there are 4 .desktop files in the hplip package:

/usr/share/applications/hplip.desktop
/usr/share/applications/hp-fab.desktop
/usr/share/applications/hp-toolbox.desktop
/usr/share/applications/hp-sendfax.desktop

Three are named by the programs which they start and they have the
correct "NoDisplay=true" directive, one is named by the package (hplip)
and does not contain the "NoDisplay=true" directive. It also starts hp-
toolbox, as hp-toolbox.desktop.

So there are two possibilities to fix the hplip package: Either remove
hp-toolbox.desktop and add "NoDisplay=true" to hplip.desktop or remove
hplip.desktop. Michael, I am more in favour of removing hplip.desktop as
this is more consistent inside the hplip package then. What is better
for your app-install-data synchronization, removing hplip.desktop or
removing hp-toolbox.desktop?

Michael, once hplip is fixed you should re-synchronize app-install-data.
