That is not a long description. It does not tell me anything, except
that XTS5 was previously known as VSW5. I guess it tests something that
is related to X, but I do not see from your description what it tests or
how it tests it. I do not know what I can use this package for. Please
write a better long description.
Yes, you are right. I've just spent a few days with several fellow X
developers and used the abbreviated terminology that makes sense only
within such a group. My apologies.
How's this for a longer long decription.
This package will contain the X Test Suite (formerly known as VSW5).
This test suite is used to test both the base libraries of the X Window
System, (Xlib, Xt, Xext, and Xi) and the X server. This test suite is
useful both for new development as well a regression suite for
distribution providers. This test suite will be useful to X Window system
developers and packagers, as well as hardware vendors developing new
graphics hardware.
