Ah, I was referring to the first screenshot you posted which has totally
unrelated packages, which I have seen before as a different bug. That's
a red herring, however.

I was unable to reproduce this bug earlier due to being on an older
version of Ubuntu (still with the latest Muon), but now testing on
11.10, I can in fact confirm that Muon can't find Dia. The Muon Software
Center uses data from the app-install-data package to determine which
packages are in fact "applications" versus technical packages. The file
for dia in app-install-data incorrectly refers to the package name of
dia being "dia-gnome-gnome". (It should be dia-gnome) Since the dia-
gnome-gnome package does not exist, Muon automatically hides the entry
since nothing could be done with it anyway.

This should affect the Ubuntu Software Center as well, since it also
uses app-install-data.
