This bug report is about several different things. License information: How USC presents this is described in the specification. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#License_label> As described there, .deb packages currently have no standard way to provide more detailed information (bug 435183).
Installed size: This is also defined in the specification <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#Software_item_screen> ("Text describing the “Total size:” of the item"). The specification would benefit from a simple and stable test case for this. If you can find a case where it is displaying incorrect information, please provide that either here or in a new bug report. Updates information: This is described in a document that is, unfortunately, not currently linked to from anywhere. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackageMaintainednessPresentation> I plan to update this in the main specification soon. Screenshots: Though USC can install software that is downloaded from Sourceforge or other Web sites, in general we want to encourage software being installable from official channels instead. So screenshots.ubuntu.com/screenshots.debian.net allows upload of screenshots for recognized packages only. When the developer portal is up and running, it will allow developers to upload screenshots for their own software, and it will be self-documenting. <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZYqT5PnPCs> In general, USC is documented better than most other parts of Ubuntu. That is not an excuse for any area where we unhelpfully lack information. But I don't see that there's anything specific we could do to fix this bug, that isn't already being tracked elsewhere. ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/792010 Title: Software-center not documented To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/792010/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
