Bug#370087: summarizing ...
retitle 370087 [pts] add short description tooltip over binary package names
thanks
Summarizing (and stating what I'm willing to implement :-)), the request
it to add tooltips over package names listed in the "binary packages"
section of the PTS. Each tooltip should contain the _short_ description
of that binary package. Implementation can be done using pure HTML, no
javascript/css needed.
I'm against the proposal of adding an hackishly selected short
description at the top of each PTS page. The reason is simply that we do
not have at all in Debian any reasonable meaning for _source_ package
description. Choosing one randomly among the available _binary_ package
descriptions seems mostly nonsense to me.
Cheers.
