Package: hpcc
Version: 1.3.1-1
Severity: wishlist
May I suggest expanding the HPL abbreviation in the Description:
of the package, so that the users looking for ``high performance
linpack'' will find it?
$ apt-cache show hpcc
...
Description: HPC Challenge Benchmark
The HPC Challenge Benchmark runs a suite of 7 tests that measure the
performance of CPU, memory and network for HPC clusters.
Amongst others, it includes the HPL benchmark, used by the Top500
ranking (http://www.top500.org).
.
This software is compiled using Open MPI and ATLAS. It must be run
with mpirun.openmpi.

Also please consider:
* expanding ``HPC Challenge'' as ``High Performance Computing
Challenge'' (as mentioned on, say, [1]), for the same reason;
* downcasing ``benchmark'', as in:
--cut: http://icl.cs.utk.edu/hpcc/ --
The HPC Challenge benchmark consists of basically 7 tests:
--cut: http://icl.cs.utk.edu/hpcc/ --
* adding trailing slash (/) to the URL: http://www.top500.org/.
Thus, finally:
