[Bug 830825] Re: AvailableApps API should not serve icon_data inline

[Michael Nelson]

11:38 < noodles> mvo: Hi! Just wanting to confirm - is it the case that USC only switched to the 2.0 api for the available apps with oneiric? (This is for https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center-agent/+bug/830825 )
11:46 < mvo> noodles: yes, currently thats the case, we need to SRU this
11:47 < mvo> noodles: I should be able to attack this today, not sure yet how much work it is though
11:47 < noodles> mvo: Sure - the SRU can come later, I just want to be sure that I can safely remove the icon_data from the 2.0 api (I'll leave it in the 1.0/view so it won't affect older versions)
11:49 < mvo> noodles: yeah, in oneiric our default service root is api/2.0
11:49 < noodles> Great, thanks.

Title:
  AvailableApps API should not serve icon_data inline

Status in Online service used by software center:
  In Progress
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The initial implementation of the software center agent required a
  single 64x64 icon to be base64 encoded into the available_apps api
  request for each application.

  We were very aware this would not scale and would need to change, but
  from memory the changes required in the client were not possible at
  the time (?).
