[Bug 858092] Re: Un-reviewed applications from a PPA have 1 star and 1 review

 

So the bug is basically that a review from a non-PPA package is also
being shown for a PPA package of the same name. That probably shouldn't
happen. The easiest way to prevent it from happening is just not to
present, or allow, reviews for (non-Purchase) PPA packages at all.

This is semi-related to bug 766951, where reviews for the same package
version on a different distribution series are being counted but not
shown. In that case, they should be shown.)

Title:
  Un-reviewed applications from a PPA have 1 star and 1 review

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I noticed this related to Photobomb in an article about Software
  Center. This obviously puts application developers at a significant
  disadvantage. I checked MyApps and it also showed that Photobomb was
  unreviewed. I think the only reason that Photobomb is showing up is
  that I added it from my PPA, though, in which case, maybe it shouldn't
  have any stars.
