Distinguish packaging when two versions of the same app are installed

It would be nice to use the additional space in the list of search results to display the path of the currently highlighted entry. By only showing that information on hover/focus, this change would be minimally disruptive, while still providing relevant information.

For instance, I came across a situation where this would be useful, while attempting to try out the recently released GIMP v2.10, using the flatpak package they provide in https://www.gimp.org/downloads.

Here's a mock-up of how it could look like:

(Note the hover information showing up in the black tooltip, where the mouse cursor was placed.)

I’m not sure we want to expose file system internals to regular users. This seems like quite an edge case where you have the same app installed from multiple sources

This might start becoming more common with the growing adoption of Flatpak and Snap packages. GIMP is a good example as it is a widely known project whose v2.10 will take a while to be included in the repos, plus they actually provide flatpak as the primary download option on their website.

I do understand the issue with exposing internals by default. Would a context menu be an acceptable alternative?

Maybe a better idea would be to append the app's version information
