[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1581205] Re: Inconsistent naming of application binary, package and self description
Ubuntu isn't going to change the name over upstream ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581205 Title: Inconsistent naming of application binary, package and self description Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: When clicking on the about dialog in the help menus you will see the following message: Files 3.14.3 Access and organizer files. This a very dumbed down message in sake of simplicity which leaves the users wondering which package installs this application. I don't care if GNOME dev's want to make life harder for their users. Ubuntu should strive for a better solution. Binary and the source packages are called nautilus, and the binary program file is also called nautilus. The name nautilus itself isn't very descriptive, and maybe bad for marketing (what does nautilus Cephalopoda has to do with files???). However, the about dialog should refer to the name of the binary program. It should display something like: Nautilus File Manager 3.14.3 Access and organizer files. This message is more helpful when searching for help about the program itself.
