USC 1.0 and later use the X-AppInstall-Keywords: field for this. It's not a great name, and I think only about two packages have the keywords so far, so maybe it could be renamed to just X-Keywords: or similar. > Here's my latest invention :b > http://menukeywords.appspot.com/ That's cool! For a couple of years now, I have wished for a feature in Launchpad where people can see what the current metadata is for a package (and whatever .desktop files are inside it), and fill in fields to suggest better metadata: title, description, keywords, icon (if you're an artist), primary category and subcategory (as shown in USC), secondary category and subcategory, and other debtags. Then a package maintainer can come along and say "I like that suggestion, and that one, and that one", click a button, and Launchpad changes that metadata in the source package ready for the next rebuild. - -- mpt -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1Cv+kACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecqhfACgtEv/QnX1/7kmxn5EB2GKJsr+ CGkAoJ6aAbGGktLX0o81OlF31o1tISZe =qOZ6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
