Your short description is way too long and only three words in it are useful: "system info script". Those three words by themselves do not really give a good idea what the package does.
The neofetch package description (short and long) is much better; you should model yours from it, adding the bits about being a fork of Neofetch and integration with other tools in the long description. Describe _what_ your package does first, then if room allows, add where it came from. It is definitely useful, in the long description, to describe how it differs from the project that it forked. I wouldn't take that out, just reorder things a bit, possibly rewording it as necessary. Write your description as if the reader may not know what Neofetch does. Something like: HyFetch is a command line script to display information about your Linux system, such as.... It is a fork of Neofetch, and adds pride flag coloration. It can also integrate.... It is also not clear (and possibly not relevant?) what the difference is between "started as a fork" and "now also maintains". Did upstream for hyfetch take over the neofetch github repo? You might want to just leave out the second part, or at least reword it to be more clear. Normally, a fork of a now-defunct project is just called a fork, unless there was some official transfer of the old project's assets to the new project upstream. ...Marvin * Bailey Kasin <baileyka...@gmail.com> [230905 02:09]: > Package: wnpp > Severity: wishlist > Owner: Bailey Kasin <baileyka...@gmail.com> > X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-de...@lists.debian.org > > * Package name : hyfetch > Version : 1.4.10 > Upstream Contact: Azalea Gui <m...@hydev.org> > * URL : https://github.com/hykilpikonna/hyfetch > * License : MIT > Programming Lang: Python > Description : A system info script built off of Neofetch, continuing > development of the original project and adding new functionality > > HyFetch started as a fork of Neofetch to add pride flag > colorations, and now also maintains Neofetch as that > project seems to be abandoned.
