Title:
Doesn't understand apt: urls
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Impact:
gnome-software doesn't understand apturls
Test case:
start "gnome-software apt:gedit", it should opens the gedit page, clicking on
an "apt:" url in firefox should open gnome-software on the corresponding
package
one limitation, it only works for apps gnome-software knows about though (so
mostly graphical softwares)
Regression potential:
it only adds support for a new type or url shouldn't regress existing code
-----------------
Doing the same in software-center opens the gedit details page
software-center used to the default handler for apt: urls, I've
changed that to apturl but if we want to keep the previous user
experience we should have gnome-software handle those
