Title:
  [GTK3] Application tiles on home screen show weird code instead of
  category/subcategory

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  software-center-gtk3 trunk r2155, Ubuntu Ocelot

  1. On the home screen, look at the application tile for "VLC" in the
  "Top Rated" area.

  What you see: "AudioVideo;Player"
  What you should see: "Sound & Video"

  It seems to be showing the raw Category data from the .desktop files,
  rather than the USC category and subcategory.

  If fixing this requires the new database needed for bug 426999 and bug
  554180, and that can't be implemented in time, I think it would be
  better in the meantime just not to show any category/subcategory data
  at all.
