[Bug 68949] Re: Package descriptions are sometimes incorrect and do not match descriptions stored in the package database

[registername]

I frequently see this problem on Kubuntu Feisty.

For example I open adept and type in "ardour" in the top search box.  I
see 5 ardour packages, but the 2nd of them "ardour-gtk" has a bad short
description: "d on a large". Expanding the ardour-gtk item I see the
following longer description

"Terminates connections for idle users.

Autolog terminates connections considered to be idle based on a large
variety of parameters."

So this seems to be the description belonging to autolog and the short
description is the end of the second line of text. The package info on
the right shows Maintainer="Paul Telford" (maintainer of autolog), but
candidate version = 0.99.3-1 (the version of ardour-gtk).

Pressing "Fetch updates" clears up the problem, but something's screwy
clearly.
