Package: www.debian.org Severity: wishlist
There are no external web links to the official project home pages of each package on http://packages.debian.org. I do not see why the Debian project should obscure the originators of the packages and I do not think that there is any rational reason. Without these links you also do not know where you can download the current source code without downloading the deb file. Furthermore Debian takes credit for the packages/programmes without having created them. Ubuntu for example provides such links (see e. g. http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/gnome/abiword) but Debian does not. Also other distributions do not provide such links but I think Debian could be a pattern to these distributions. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
