I'd like to see a test case that didn't depend on the fall back behavior to succeed, so a test where summary was set. I'd also like to see one where both description and summary were set to make sure the right choice is made.

Okay, I've added those in.

New webrev at:

 http://cr.opensolaris.org/~richb/pkg-4395-8829-v5/

Note that I couldn't do something like:

 self.assert_(res.description == "DESCRIPTION: Example Package 6")

in the "example_pkg6" section, because "description" isn't a
valid field in the PackageInfo class in .../gate/src/modules/client/api.py
(around lines 1685-1716).

Should this be changed?

Thanks.

Hmm. I think it depends on whether we're totally deprecating the description field, or if the summary and description fields are both going to remain, but should be different things. If we're totally deprecating, then it's fine for PackageInfo not to have a description entry. If we want both around, but with different values, then PackageInfo should expose that.

From a sample size of one (but a good sample since it was Danek), it sounds like we're going to want to have both in a package. The description will be storing the long description of the package. So, PackageInfo should probably present both to the world.
