Bug#364848: general: please have package short descriptions say what the package REALLY does
Package: general
Severity: normal
i think it will help to require short descriptions to make sense to
anybody who knows only about the most widely used terms.
often new packages are added like the following. i do not mean to
pick on ndiswrapper at all; it was just the most recent example.
this bug applies to normal packages and not just kernel modules.
please note that few users will know what "ndis" is.
thanks.
ndiswrapper-common - Userspace utilities for ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper-source - Source for the ndiswrapper linux kernel module
ndiswrapper-utils - Userspace utilities for ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper-utils-1.7 - Userspace utilities for ndiswrapper
