Bug Description

Reported via ubuntu discourse at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/hijacked-website-of-the-app-wallch-in-ubuntu-software/15402

The debian packaging contains a url which seems to have been lost by the original author of the software. It should be removed, or replaced with a different url for the upstream author.

The domain is melloristudio dot com.
