Created attachment 157318 [details] kde_cannot_find_nemo SUMMARY The search functionality in places like the applications launcher or krunner doesn't find apps by their name if the name isn't repeated in the description inside the .desktop entry.

Type "nemo". OBSERVED RESULT Doesn't find nemo. EXPECTED RESULT Should find nemo.

As a workaround, you can add "Nemo" to the app's keywords. And ideally you would submit a pull request upstream to do this in the app's code. :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 465961 ***
