Public bug reported:

apps.ubuntu.com previously offered a convenient web interface to the
Ubuntu package repositories. When building the HTML version of the
desktop guide, we have therefore converted apt:<package> links to
equivalent apps.ubuntu.com links.

However, apps.ubuntu.com now redirects to snapcraft.io/store, so those
converted links are broken.
