Bug#908097: plasma-desktop: searching programs gives irrelevant results probably based on dependency
Package: plasma-desktop
Version: 4:5.8.6-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The Search Field in Plasma's Kickoff panel matches against names and
descriptions according to the kde wiki [0], but it's probably matching
more than that, and consequently some results are rather irrelevant.
For example, I typed "qt" into the search field as I wanted to open the
Qt Creator, but many other programs that depending on Qt are also in the
search result, and the first coloum which can be opened with [enter] is
not the one that is most likely to be selected.

I checked `apt show keepassxc | grep qt` and the only match is the
"Depends" line, so I think it should not be included in the search result,
especially when it is appearred as the first column.
Searching through Alt+F2 is also affected.
Thank you for your time.
