Marking as verification-done ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-xenial ** Description changed: [Impact] GNOME Software can show incorrect version of snap that will be installed on details page. [Test Case] - 1. Open GNOME Software. Ensure blender snap is not installed. - 2. Select blender snap (tried 28-04-2018, may change if store versions are changed) + 1. Open GNOME Software. Ensure blender or spotify snap is not installed. + 2. Select blender or spotify snap (tried 28-04-2018, may change if store versions are changed) Expected result: Version label shows version to be installed (stable channel by default) Observed result: Version label shows most recently uploaded version, i.e. from the edge channel. This is not the version that will be installed when clicking install. [Regression Potential] The logic around choosing which version value to show was changed. Could create other bugs with this data. Orignial text: Ubuntu Software, when showing metadata about a snap package, is most of the time, likely to get information which is misleading, since it shows info from the *most recently* uploaded snap, regardless of which channel the snap was uploaded to. An example of this is to search for blender, and see that the version shows the edge channel - 2.80-4de142e0b7b and not the stable channel - 2.79. After actually installing the application, the correct metadata is shown.
