Description Massimiliano 2015-06-21 12:12:22 UTC

When I select a package by clicking on it with the mouse, apper shows details about it in the lower part of the window. If I click on another package, it changes the description to the one of the newly selected package. This doesn't happen if I change the selected package with arrow keys, as apper keeps showing the description of the last clicked package.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open apper and search for something
2. Click on one of the results. A description of it appears in the lower part
3. Presso up/down arrow keys

Actual Results:  
The description doesn't update.

Expected Results:  
The description updates to the one of the newly selected package.

Hello,

I don't use Debian anymore, it's been quite some time since the bug report.
Anyways, anyone can try and reproduce the bug, there are clear instructions how to do it.

This project is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/system/apper

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
