Bug Description

The Software Manager (mintInstall 7.5.7) shows an outdated link for the gnome-mahjongg package.
The link shown is

https://live.gnome.org/Mahjongg

but it should be

https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Mahjongg

Not the end of the world, I know, but still a bug.

My system: Mint 17 64-bit XFCE, dist-upgraded to current.

Cheers

I'm surprised you have the issue with 1:3.12.2-0ubuntu2, because I fixed this prior to the upstream 3.12.0 release: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-mahjongg/commit/?h=gnome-3-12&id=f3ad36d299c40bee182221758a775f4c464277ec

Michael: Hm. Looks like the home page might be defined multiple places. Looking at [1], it is pointing to the first link mentioned in the report. The package in Ubuntu Vivid [2] on the other hand, is pointing to the other/correct URL.

I am not sure where it fetches the URL which is used for homepage, though. I believed it simply fetched the value from the debian/control file, which in this case seems to be generated from debian/control.in. But that doesn't seem to have changed the homepage url between utopic [3] and vivid [4] so I'm not sure why packages.ubuntu.com displays different URLs.
