Hello
As suggested in Catalog-SIG by some people, I would like to propose
the addition of three more fields for 1.2:
"Repository-URL"
A string containing the URL for the package's repository.
Example:
http://svn.python.org/projects/python/trunk/
"Repository-Browse-URL"
A string containing the URL for the package's browsable repository.
Example:
http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk
"Bug-Tracker-URL"
A string containing the URL for the package's bug tracker
Example:
http://bugs.python.org/
What are the possible use-cases (by the tools) of these new fields would
be? I can imagine Repository-URL to be of use (eg: pip install
IPython==dev), but have no idea why the other two should be added.
