Package: synaptic Version: 0.84.2 Severity: normal When clicking "Get Screenshot" for e.g. synaptic itself, a request is made to http://screenshots.debian.net/screenshot/synaptic. As far as I can tell, this returns the first (i.e. oldest - v0.62.3) screenshot uploaded, but even if this was changed to the newest it would not be ideal for e.g. oldoldstable users who may be misled.
Ideally, I think the screenshots retrieved should match those displayed as thumbnails on packages.debian.org for the relevant suite. The thumbnails use the following url structure: wheezy: https://screenshots.debian.net/thumbnail-with-version//synaptic/0.75.13 (retrieves 0.75.13) jessie: https://screenshots.debian.net/thumbnail-with-version//synaptic/0.81.2 (retrieves 0.75.13 as no updated screenshots had been uploaded) stretch: https://screenshots.debian.net/thumbnail-with-version//synaptic/0.84.2 (retrieves 0.84.2) The corresponding url format which would therefore be ideal for synaptic's "Get Screenshot" is: https://screenshots.debian.net/screenshot-with-version/synaptic/0.84.2 -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages synaptic depends on: ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.15-1 ii libapt-inst2.0 1.4.6 ii libapt-pkg5.0 1.4.6 ii libatk1.0-0 2.22.0-1 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.8-1 ii libcairo2 1.14.8-1 ii libept1.5.0 1.1+nmu3+b1 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.36.5-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.50.3-2 ii libgnutls30 3.5.8-5+deb9u1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.22.11-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.5-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.5-1 ii libpcre2-8-0 10.22-3 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18 ii libvte-2.91-0 0.46.1-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.4-3 ii libxapian30 1.4.3-2 ii policykit-1 0.105-18 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 Versions of packages synaptic recommends: ii libgtk2-perl 2:1.2499-1 ii rarian-compat 0.8.1-6+b1 ii xdg-utils 1.1.1-1 Versions of packages synaptic suggests: pn apt-xapian-index <none> pn deborphan <none> pn dwww <none> pn menu <none> pn software-properties-gtk <none> ii tasksel 3.39 -- no debconf information
