Summary

KDE Connect comes installed on Plasma.
Searching for "kdeconnect" in kickoff (App menu) shows "Get KDE Connect..." under "Software Center"
If you click on this, it produces an error

Searching for "KDE Connect" in kickoff shows the right entry under "Applicatons"

Steps to reproduce

  1. Search the app menu for "kdeconnect"
  2. Click on "Get KDE Connect" under "Software Center"

Expected result

KDE Connect is shown under Applications. Clicking on it launches the software.
If the user had removed KDE Connect, it is brought up under the Software Center category. If the user clicks it, it is brought up in SC so the user can install it

Actual result

A system notification pops up an error
Could not read file appstream://org.kde.kdeconnect.

Other comments

This is a regression from 4.5, searching for kdeconnect produces not matches.
Proposed solution: Have the keyword kdeconnect match the installed KDE Connect if installed
Only suggest getting from SC if not installed, and select the correct package in SC when the user clicks on "Get"
