Adding "Enhances: totem" will *only* cause an "A totem plugin to watch
streams from arte.tv" checkbox to appear on the screen for totem. It
will not cause your package to appear by default when searching for
"arte".

Conversely, adding a .desktop file will *only* cause your package to
appear by default when searching for "arte". It will not cause the
checkbox to appear on the screen for totem.

So if you want both, do both.

We already have an "advanced" department; we call it "System", and
totem-plugin-arte appears there right now. But you have made no mention
of it, and I don't think renaming it from "System" to "Advanced" would
make it more noticable. ;-) As time goes on, we will try to move more
and more items out of that department, when we can find a better place
for them. For example, totem-plugin-arte has "Section: universe/video",
and *maybe* we could move all "Section: ...video" packages into "Sound &
Video", once we've surveyed them to see how relevant they are.

Having a separate filter for -dev and -dbg packages is something we have
considered, but this bug report is probably now a bit noisy to track it
as a feature. So, perhaps you could use this bug report to track your
changes to totem-plugin-arte (since the instructions are here), while we
open a separate bug report for the -dev/-dbg filter. Does that make
sense?

** Package changed: software-center (Ubuntu) => totem-plugin-arte
(Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- Many useful packages are said "technical" and not displayed by default
