[PLUG] Gnome-Software, apt

In ubuntu 16.04 the package manager GUI is Gnome-Software.  (You would not
know that just by looking at the name provided by hovering over the icon
nor by launching it and looking for a help/about menu-none exists.)

I search for stress in Gnome-Software and get nothing found.  Using
apt-cache search stress it is found.  I thought the GUI was a front-end for
apt.  I have searched for problems such as this and tried setting the
language to English to no avail.

Any ideas on what is going on?
