Bug ID: 42969 Summary: Spotted errors in "Distributions" list; 1st page Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: faalagorn@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Distribution list is what it seems at the first glance far from being perfect, but since it can be easily browsable by clicking the "Distribution" link in the left menu on AppHQ, I thought I'll give a try listing the most blatant errors on just the first page I spotted. I opted out to make just a one bug entry, to avoid cluttering with too much new bugs for each spotted mistake.
I'd be glad helping to clean it even more if there's a need, though for that it would be really handy to know someone I could consult the changes with and fix them in a timely manner. If there's a way though, just guide me where's the best place to do so!
- "1.0.3.0" - someone mistakenly filled distribtuion with application version, it's not a Linux distro.
- "Antegros 32 bit" and "Antergos 64bit" - missing space. Also the 64-bit link is http: instead https:
- "Aptosid 32bit" URL is lacking the http: part altogether, resulting in a dead link
- "Arch Linux" and "Arch Linux x86_64" point to http://wiki.winehq.org/Arch_Linux instead an official website like other distro do - which funny enough is a dead link. Also, I have a feeling that the omission of any 32-bit indication in Arch Linux might lead to some accidentally choosing it on 64-bit distros, which may be more troubling as the 32-bit support is being phased out (and totally dropping at the end of 2017).
Again, it's only the first glance on the first page. Unfortunately, I don't have a way to fix the issues myself, but I believe it should be easy for AppDB Admin. There are related bug reports that mention improving adding on distribution, so it's something to look in the future. In the meantime, I'd be glad with Arch and Antergos changes, as they are trending as a rolling release gaming OS nowadays, and coincidentally the ones I use myself :)
