It is a weekly check running against the meta-data of rawhide, so you need to
build it, not just push :)

That seems weird to me because I forgot to add a description in pkgdb
when I created ola. But that was almost a month ago but the overview[1]
still says "(no description in pkgdb)" while the subpackages do have their 
descriptions from the spec file.

Updating summary and description of a package on pkgdb and the spec

[Ankur Sinha]

Hiya!

Can the summary and description of a package be changed on pkgdb?

Also, if it can't, is it OK if the summary and description on pkgdb
differ from the spec?

Got my answer from puiterwijk over IRC:

Pkgdb picks up the summary and description from the spec itself, so one
just needs to update the spec and it should reflect in pgkdb after the
next push.

So the whole business of faffing around extracting the description to 
paste into the new package form is a bit pointless then, because it will 
just get overwritten when the initial spec is pushed?


Does that apply to the upstream URL as well?

That's not pkgdb. This is: 
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/ola/

 | rpms/ola (upstream)
 |
 | a framework for controlling entertainment lighting equipment

No, but it still reports "(no description in pkgdb)"

This is not the description but the summary, so the description is
still empty

Description and URL are optional. And the refresh is done just once in
while (like once per week? but it might change already, who knows :).
