[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Thanks Antonio, I've been able to reproduce it the way you described.
Setting to triage/medium as it doesn't seem to affect other s-c
functionalities.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Medium

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Triaged

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: software-center
+ TEST CASE
+ 1. Launch SC from a terminal
+ 2. Select Canonical Partner
+   -> No package should be displayed on the left pane
+ 3. Enter some string in the search field
  
- b43 cutter
+ Result:
+ The following trace is displayed on the terminal:
+ """
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+   File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk/softwarepane.py", line 559, in on_app_list_changed
+     self.update_search_help()
+   File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk/softwarepane.py", line 641, in update_search_help
+     if self.apps_filter.get_supported_only():
