Description xezal 2025-03-20 11:09:42 UTC
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure application launcher and set other applications to show in a grid.
2. Edit an application's name so that it starts with a lowercase latin letter or install such an application. (e.g qBittorrent)
3. Check All Applications.

OBSERVED RESULT
Application is delisted from All Applications while still visible in search and relevant categories. If it is the only entry that starts with that letter, the header letter is listed without entries.

EXPECTED RESULT
Application should be listed in All Applications.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version:  6.3.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2

I confirm this on git-master
I already had a number of applications installed whose names are all lowercase

ghostwriter, qBittorrent, gedit and others
None of them are listed in All Applications when it's set to grid view
They are listed in list view, and in search results
