Bug Description
[Impact]
Snaps are not shown in categories.
[Test Case]
1. Open GNOME Software
2. Select "Games" category at the bottom of the page.
3. Select "All"
4. Look for pin-town (a snap game)
Expected result:
Game is shown
Observed result:
Game is not shown.
[Regression Potential]
Loading snap information in category screens could trigger new bugs.
1- I uploaded a snap on myapps.
2- I choose Category: Games (note that I cannot choose a sub-category (Kids))
3- Default type: ? (I choose application, but not sure what it does exactly)
4- Opening Ubuntu Software on Ubuntu 16.04 I can find and install it when using the search bar
5- BUT my application is not listed in any categories, not even in Games - All
6- After installing the application, I can see it listed in Games - Kids (because the .desktop file have this entry Categories=
Looks like only .deb are listed in categories within Ubuntu Software?
