> If it's the image to be shown when there is an error loading the image, then > the API is wrong, No, it is exactly that. That is the reason why fallback was introduced for, in case the art image fails to load (server is overloaded, resource is gone, etc) and then we show a fallback.
It is documented like that as you can see in https://developer.ubuntu.com/api/scopes/cpp/sdk-15.04.1/md__r_e_l_e_a_s_e__n_o_t_e_s/ "This allows a scope to specify a category-specific fallback image in case the artwork for a result cannot be retrieved." You can argue that a blank URI can not be retrieved and thus the fallback needs to be loaded. My argument is that a blank URI says "no retrieval needed", so it is not an error and no fallback is needed. I'll implement what you're asking for and let others decide if it needs to be merged or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1531913 Title: Fallback image not shown when no image specified Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In fixing bug #1520631 in unity-scope-click, as the store server will start allowing uploads with no icon specified, it was discovered that Unity8 is not showing the fallback when we do not include the artwork. Instead, it is only shown if we specify invalid artwork. This seems wrong, and instead I would think the fallback would be displayed whenever no other artwork is provided.
