2011-09-07 16:23:36 Matthew Paul Thomas summary Item appears in two subsections without using X-Ubuntu-Category-Secondary Item appears in wrong second category/subcategory
2011-09-07 16:23:36 Matthew Paul Thomas description Binary package hint: software-center Ubuntu Software Center 1.1.23, Ubuntu Lucid 0. Select "View" > "All Software", if it is not selected already. 1. Navigate to "Get Software" > "Games" > "Card Games", and scroll to "poker". 2. Navigate to "Get Software" > "Developer Tools" > "Python", and scroll to "poker". What happens: 1. "poker2D"/"Multiplayer online poker" is in the "Card Games" section. 2. "poker2D"/"Multiplayer online poker" is in the "Python" section. What should happen: 2. "poker2D"/"Multiplayer online poker" is not in the "Python" section. This is indirectly because python-poker2d has "Section: python" when it should not. Regardless, it illustrates a bug in Ubuntu Software Center: unless an item uses X-Ubuntu-Category-Secondary, it should appear in only *one* subsection. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#Genre>: "1. If it has a .desktop file with at least one Category: value that matches one of the subsections listed above, then: 1. Use the first recognizable Category: value to determine the subsection from the table. 2. Determine the department from the subsection’s location in the table. 3. Stop."
