Public bug reported:
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 x64 and the installed version of gnome-software
is 3.20.1
* I install a desktop application from a .deb package. I tried several
methods (apt install, dpkg -i, xdg-open then click on install button).
* After the installation, I control that the application is visible from the
system:
* The application appears correctly in the application list in Unity Dash
* The application appears in the "Open With" menu list in Nautilus (because
of registered mime types)
* The package name of the application can be used as an argument of apt
commands (apt show, apt remove...) and dpkg (dpkg -l, dpkg -L...)
* I start gnome-software.
* I click on the "installed" tab to get the list of installed applications.
expected result: the freshly installed application is in the list
actual result: the freshly installed application is not in the list.
If I reboot my computer and start gnome-software, the installed
application appears in the list.
It looks like there is some kind of cache that is not refreshed at the
right moment.
