Bug#185364: debian-policy: project url's should be required for each apt-cache package description



Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.5.8.0
Severity: wishlist

Consider a user thumbing thru aptitude or apt-cache show.
He sees a brief description of a package that sounds good.
But he wants to know a little more before committing to a multi
megabyte download and install.

Therefore those packages without project url's in their package info
should either add them or say they really have none.

True, the user could do a google search, but...
