Hmm, I can't seem to reproduce this in stock Natty at all either. I have
a VM set up as Chinese(Simplified) and I am seeing package names and
descriptions translated 100% of the time. Well, to be clear, I am seeing
those package names and descriptions *for which there are translations
available* translated.

Compare the attached screenshot from my machine with Kyle's screenshot
in comment #1. Note that in my case, almost all of the package
descriptions are translated, and one of the package names is translated.

Title:
  Can't search for translated app names

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  When the system is in Chinese/Simplified (LANGUAGE=zh_CN:en,
  LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8, for example), zh-hans lang packs installed, one
  cannot search for pkgs when entering Chinese Characters in the
  Software Center top right search box.

  software-center 4.0

  For example, I entered "word processor" in English and the expected
  list of pkgs was displayed. (attachment 1.png)

  I then entered the Chinese/Simplified translation of "word processor"
  (obtained from google translate) and there are no pkgs displayed.
