Description Jean Francois Martinez 2006-01-19 22:06:11 UTC
Description of problem:  No  info about software


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.4.1


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Start Pirut
2.  Go in List mode
3.  Just names with version numbers, no descriptions
  
Actual results: Try to guess from pirut outpiut what "plague" is: a CAD package
for building interplanetary rockets or a is kit for building Windows virii?


Expected results: a one liner description, with the possibility of getting more
details (including disk space required) if I click on the line.  The browse view
is a bit better than the list view because you get the one liner but not being
able to get more detailed information still sucks.

Also notice that the user whose attention was caught by the interesting "plague"
name in tje List view, doesn't know in which category look for it in the Browse
view (in order to get that one liner info)

Additional info:  At this point Piru's UI neeeds _drastic_ improvements before
final release.  As it is, it is nearly unusable.
