** Description changed:

+ Impact
+ ------
+ Widelands doesn't show up in the Ubuntu/GNOME Software app.
+ 
+ The easiest way to fix this issue is to set Icon=widelands in its
+ .desktop instead of pointing to a specific filename. This will also
+ allow the app icon to scale better across resolutions by using the
+ standard theme support.
+ 
+ Test Case
+ ----------
+ 1. Wait a day after the update is published.
+ 2. Make sure gnome-software is not running. You can either log out and log 
back in or run something like
+ pkill gnome-software
+ 3. Open the Ubuntu Software app.
+ Search for Widelands. It should show up and be installable.
+ 4. Install the app and run the app. Its app icon should display correctly in 
the Activities Overview and when running.
+ 
+ 
+ Regression Potential
+ -------------------
+ This is a minimal fix to improve the icon specified in the .desktop.
+

+ Original Bug Report
+ -------------------
+ 
  Hi, I'm one of the developers of the Widelands game. It has landed in
  Universe:
  
  https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=widelands
  
  The packages are also available in Debian stable:
  
  
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=widelands&searchon=names&suite=stretch&section=all
  
  However, nobody can see it in the software center. Is there anything
  else I can do myself to get this in and then to maintain it in the
  future?
  
  The game consists of 2 packages, widelands and widelands-data.
  
  Thanks!
