Title:
"Copy Web Link" links to apt.ubuntu.com and could link to
apps.ubuntu.com
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In Software Centre, Edit > Copy Web Link copies a link to
apt.ubuntu.com; visiting that link directly starts installing the
package. Perhaps it could link to the page on apps.ubuntu.com for the
package, so that I can give the link to other people and then those
other people can see what the app is, read reviews of it, and decide
whether they want to install it?
(I've also noticed, without being able to replicate reliably, that
Copy Web Link is sometimes insensitive when viewing an application in
USC; if I can reliably replicate this I'll file a different bug, but
perhaps it's related?)
