needs to send maintainer and license to pkgme

[Michael Vogt]

The automatic pdf packaging is progress and upon inspecting the result it looks like software-center-agent is not currently sending the maintainer/upstream-author and the license to pkgme.

Hi,

Just a note to say that sending maintainer to pkgme-service won't be quite enough,
as it currently overrides it to set it to the bot user.

That's easy to change if we think it's the right thing to do.

Thanks,

James

Is this related to bug 1026121?

Yes. The data entered by MyApps needs to be sent to the pkgme-service

Yes, it is related.

However, even if we have this information it may not be right to use it
in the copyright file, as the person who uploaded the stuff to myapps
may not be the copyright holder (it may be the company they work for, or
maybe there are 30 different copyright holders.)

Thanks,

James
