Hi,

I was thinking screenshots.debian.net was a debian packages
screenshots repository.

But today I found this package which doesn't seem to be in debian
while I was uploading a xcowsay screenshot :

http://screenshots.debian.net/package/checkbox-gtk

So, I think screenshots.debian.net could check if exists one package
with this name , shoudn't it ?

What is your opinions about this issue?

Thanks!

The problem is that not there are a checkbox-gtk package in debian, so
why a screenshot of this ?

Why not ask the people who run screenshots.debian.net?

Hello :-)

Know nothing about that site but it seems (as per the guidelines) that
all the screenshots are reviewed by the site admins before they become
visibe to the users.

So, how about asking them? :-?

Because Debian is not the only one to use that repository, Ubuntu also
uses it, hence that screenshot.

Then a ticket should be created to modify welcome page to tell about
this site is for Ubuntu (and possibility other debian derived
distros).

Good pointer :)
