Package: bzr-gtk Version: 0.95.0+bzr649-1 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/olive-gtk
When you run olive for the first time, it shows you a picture of an olive. If you don't happen to start it in a bzr directory, it doesn't give you many clues as to what the heck it does. The only clue is the titlebar which says "Olive - Bazaar GUI". Obviously, if you know that Bazaar is a version control system, you could guess at what it does. But, though it may be surprising, quite a number of adults I surveyed associate the word "bazaar" with a middle-Eastern shopping experience rather than with programming tools. The "Help" menu isn't helpful, because it only gives credits. "Help" should give the user a 1-sentence summary of what the program does. Explaining thing is, after all, what it's there for. I'd suggest this: "Olive is a graphical front end that lets you conveniently control the Bazaar (bzr) distributed version control system. This program lets you track changes to a group of files and collaboratively work on programs or documents." -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bzr-gtk depends on: ii bzr 1.16.1-1 easy to use distributed version co ii python 2.5.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.6.11 register and build utility for Pyt ii python-glade2 2.14.1-3 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gtk2 2.14.1-3 Python bindings for the GTK+ widge ii python-notify 0.1.1-2+b1 Python bindings for libnotify Versions of packages bzr-gtk recommends: ii bzr-dbus 0.1~bzr39-1 D-Bus announcements plugin for Baz ii python-cairo 1.8.4-3 Python bindings for the Cairo vect ii python-gnome2-desktop 2.24.1-1 Python bindings for the GNOME desk ii python-gnomekeyring 2.24.1-1+b2 Python bindings for the GNOME keyr ii python-gtksourceview2 2.6.0-1 Python bindings for the GtkSourceV ii python-nautilus 0.5.1-2 Python binding for Nautilus compon ii seahorse 2.26.1-2 GNOME front end for GnuPG Versions of packages bzr-gtk suggests: pn bzr-avahi <none> (no description available) pn bzr-loom <none> (no description available) pn bzr-search <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
