Title:
de-confusing many items for one app
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hi,
When looking for an app' it's quite confusing it's listed twice ( or
more ), one on top of the list and one at end of the list.
I can think of 2 ways for ending confusion.
1. Add the packaging type to name of app
https://snapforum.s3.dualstack.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/original/2X/d/d3e2afef29ed6c82f7f639c45a9710412f196d9d.jpeg
and stop putting the legacy .deb package at the end. Its fair position is at
first or second in the list.
2. Only show one item for an app ( instead of one item by type of packaging )
and then give the choice of packaging type on the installation page
https://snapforum.s3.dualstack.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/original/2X/4/4492aa0ca29706dec898db61cddfe371b4c18685.jpeg
Better solution in my opinion.
This a mainly to avoid people installing without knowing the type of
package.
As it is today the package info is available too late and at the
bottom of the page.
