Public bug reported: The package description for linux-tools-2.6.32-21 reads:
Description: Linux kernel tools for version 2.6.32-21 This package provides the architecture dependant parts for kernel version locked tools for version 2.6.32-21 on DESC. and the corresponding metapackage linux-tools has: Description: Linux kernel versioned Tools This package will always depend on the latest Linux kernel versioned tools available. The Ubuntu patches have been applied. Neither of these explain what this package includes, or what it's useful for. See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch- binary.html#s-descriptions for more information on crafting an appropriate description, in particular: "The description should describe the package (the program) to a user (system administrator) who has never met it before so that they have enough information to decide whether they want to install it." Also notice the raw "DESC" which looks like it was meant to be used for a string substitution. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bitesize packaging string-fix -- Package description for linux-tools-* needs improvement https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/593107 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
