Research direction

Start by reproducing the search behavior in Mintinstall 8.3.8 on Linux Mint 22.2 Xfce 64-bit, first searching for a Flatpak before refreshing the package list and then repeating the search after refresh. Done means Flatpaks appear in search results without requiring a manual package-list refresh.

Mintinstall 8.3.8
Linux Mint 22.2 Xfce 64-bit

Flatpaks are not shown (when I search for them), until I refresh the list of packages.
I reproduced it multiple times.
