Bug Description

Found in 22.04 Jammy, but applies for others too.

Expected/Suggested new package description:
Nemo is the default file manager and graphical shell for Cinnamon. This provides a installation for Ubuntu desktops using the minimum dependencies from Cinnamon.

Actual package description:
Nemo is a media player for Unix and Windows systems currently in heavy development. Documentation will be updated as development progresses.

Rationale:
the package has nothing to do with a media player.

Hi, as you can see in d/control the package descriptions are correct:
https://salsa.debian.org/cinnamon-team/nemo/-/blob/master/debian/control

the things you refer seems only wrong upstream connection here (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nemo), that link to another software
I don't know who and why set it, I removed it
from a fast try seems that launchpad make possible link only project on it so I can't link the correct upstream one, I left empty, the correct upstream infos are setted in d/control, d/copyright and d/upstream/metadata (in the packages source and the first 2 also in packages binaries)

Changed in nemo (Ubuntu):
status: New → Fix Released
