I'm aware that some packages may show that they are from Ubuntu while
they in fact used in both distributions. The reason is that
screenshots.debian.net was first created for Debian and then later
added packages that were only available on Ubuntu. The algorithm that
decides whether a package is shown as being in Ubuntu or Debian
doesn't make sense nowadays and will thus get a serious makeover. It's
just an ugly hack to support Ubuntu. Be assured that this will change.
In the future there will be screenshots.debian.net that prefers Debian
package information and screenshots.ubuntu.com that prefers Ubuntu
package information. The new version will also support other kinds of
Linux distributions like OpenSuSE and CentOS.

Cheers
 Christoph
