Updated description with some other findings coming from bug #889340.

** Description changed:

  On a relatively fresh Oneiric install, I pressed the Win key to bring up
  the application menu. I selected "Media apps", chose "Graphics" from the
  right-hand list, then selected Dia from the list of installable apps.
  The Ubuntu Software Centre launched, and displayed the following error:
  
      There isn't a software package called "dia-gnome-gnome" in your
  current software sources.
  
  I'd guess that this is a simple copy-paste error (the correct package
  is, I assume, dia-gnome), but I'm not certain which package contains the
  bad data.
+ 
+ EDIT: per bug #889340, Dia shows up two times in Software Center: one
+ time as "Diagram editor" and a second one as "Dia Diagram Editor". The
+ first one is installable and has got a complete description, the second
+ one does not.
