[Bug 928170] [NEW] Muon Software Center doesn't find all software

[Silicoid]

Public bug reported:

I wanted to install dia via the software center. It wasn't found so I
wasn't able to install it via the software center. I went to the CLI and
installed it without problem. The same is with other software like i.e.
perl. Why can't I search for this software and install it via the
Software Center? Especially when it comes to software like dia it is bad
because users who are not familiar with kubuntu won't be able to install
it.

I also couldn't find any document that explains why this happens. If
this is "works as designed" then a message/button/link would be nice
that gives an explanation.
