[Bug 791932] Re: [Maverick] screenshot issues with For Purchase apps

[Gary Lasker]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: software-center
  
  Software Center version 3.0.8, Ubuntu Maverick
  
- Everything works fine in Natty, but Software Center in Maverick no
- longer displays screenshots for most of the For Purchase apps.  And for
- those few apps for which screenshots do appear, the corresponding
- thumbnail in the details view in Software Center is way oversized (see
- attached screenshot).
+ Due to changes in the way that screenshots are stored on the server for
+ For Purchase items, two problems have appeared with screenshots in the
+ details view of Software Center in Maverick (note that Natty and Oneiric
+ are fine). These problems are:
  
- Dave Morley checked all of the For Purchase apps today and provided the
- following list:
+   1. For the majority of applications in the For Purchase section, screenshots are missing completely.
+   2. For those few apps for which screenshots do appear (currently Bullet Candy Perfect,Family Farm and Irukandji), the corresponding thumbnail in the details view in Software Center is way oversized and does not fit in the window (see attached screenshot).

+ TEST CASE for SRU:
+ 
+ 1. While running Maverick, install Software Center version 3.0.9 from maverick-proposed.
+ 2. Open Software Center and click the "For Purchase" node in the left navigation pane.
+ 3. Choose either Bullet Candy Perfect or Family Farm in the list and click "More Info" to view the details view for the app.
+ 4. Verify that a properly-sized screenshot thumbnail appears in the view (refer to attachment "SoftwareCenterCorrectlySizedThumbnail.png").
+ 5. Click the thumbnail and verify that the full-size screenshot is displayed.
+ 6. Check the other apps in the For Purchase list and verify that each has a screenshot thumbnail and that the full-size screenshot can be viewed.
