I just noticed that they also list a PPA that I maintain ( http://ubuntu-tweak.com/source/tracker-unstable-ppa/ ). However, the description on their website doesn't match the description of my PPA on Launchpad. Their description looks like it's been completely written by them to make it look like they are maintaining the packages ("Ultimately various packages that I primarily build for my own experiments. I try to keep a package of unstable tracker for Ubuntu Karmic updated here. Please let me know if stuff doesn't work."). My PPA has never had that description, and I find it wholly offensive that they are using it this way. Regards Chris
