No, but it could be a “Sports and Fitness” metapackage. There are a remarkable number of such apps for Android, for instance. (Well, remarkable at least to me ... :) Did you know there is a running app that simulates being in a zombie apocolypse? There’s a whole multi-month workout routine built around this story line and it’s quite popular. It even has multiple “seasons” of storyline now! If we had a “Sports and Fitness” metapackage that only included a scuba-diving app right now, it might inspire people to think about the possibilities and create more apps in this category. tl;dr -> This approach of having metapackages for everything might be a positive thing, even in the odd cases of “single entry” packages. ..and of course, if there was just only “Sports and Fitness” application on git.kde.org, distros could merge with apps from other projects as you noted about “hobby photographer”. -- Aaron J.
