Public bug reported: an we, just for For Purchase apps, *always* show the description that is entered in the dev portal rather than showing the long desc in the control file after the package is installed. Right now we package first and publish later; often times, the vendor doesn't provide me a description so I have to find one on their website or create one, or even if they do, they often change it at the last minute resulting in the description being (sometimes vastly) different pre-install versus post-install.
I would prefer, and from talking to a couple of vendors they would as well, that the Dev Portal description be authoritative. ** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803023 Title: For Purchase Apps: Console description should be authoritative To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/803023/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
