After making some tests i've found this:

After installing an Adobe Air application the /usr/share/app-install/desktop is modified, adding a .desktop file for the installed application (i'm attaching one in case it helps)

if i run from terminal gnome-app-install i've got this

 gnome-app-install

** (gnome-app-install:17028): WARNING **: return value of custom widget handler was not a GtkWidget

(it seems normal..)

After reinstalling

 sudo apt-get --reinstall install gnome-app-install

i've got this:

** (gnome-app-install:17251): WARNING **: return value of custom widget handler was not a GtkWidget
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/AppInstall/AppInstall.py:1274: GtkWarning: gtk_tree_model_sort_sort: assertion `tree_model_sort->default_sort_func != NULL' failed
  item.applications.set_default_sort_func(None)

and the list is shown as usual.

Digging a bit into Adobe air, i've found some scripts that seems to create the .desktop files and process the installation process for the Air application. I'll bet that the problem lies in there.

/opt/Adobe AIR/Versions/1.0/Resources/appinstall

the postinst script maybe is related.
