From 28ac782583d6a959940ece313e3842a97e9340c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bjørn Forsman Date: Sat, 5 Oct 2013 16:22:46 +0200 Subject: Some description fixes There are many more packages to fix, this is just a start. Rules: * Don't repeat the package name (not always that easy...) * Start with capital letter * Don't end with full stop * Don't start with "The ..." or "A ..." I've also added descriptions to some packages and rewritten others. --- pkgs/tools/X11/autocutsel/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/X11/bgs/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/admin/analog/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/filesystems/archivemount/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/graphics/argyllcms/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/misc/autojump/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/misc/autorandr/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/misc/byobu/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/aria/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/axel/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/bwm-ng/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/chrony/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/p2p/amule/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/networking/p2p/bit-tornado/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/security/apg/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/security/clamav/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/tools/typesetting/tex/auctex/default.nix | 2 +- 17 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) (limited to 'pkgs/tools') diff --git a/pkgs/tools/X11/autocutsel/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/X11/autocutsel/default.nix index f4776933e53d..bc7679b1670e 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/X11/autocutsel/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/X11/autocutsel/default.nix @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation { meta = { homepage = "http://www.nongnu.org/autocutsel/"; - description = "Autocutsel tracks changes in the server's cutbuffer and CLIPBOARD selection."; + description = "Tracks changes in the server's cutbuffer and CLIPBOARD selection"; license = "GPLv2+"; platforms = with stdenv.lib.platforms; all; }; diff --git a/pkgs/tools/X11/bgs/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/X11/bgs/default.nix index a3fff2bc50b0..0c6951aa3e76 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/X11/bgs/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/X11/bgs/default.nix @@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation rec { preConfigure = ''sed -i "s@PREFIX = /usr/local@PREFIX = $out@g" config.mk''; meta = { - description = "bgs is an extremely fast and small background setter for X."; + description = "Extremely fast and small background setter for X"; license = "MIT"; platforms = with stdenv.lib.platforms; all; maintainers = with stdenv.lib.maintainers; [pSub]; diff --git a/pkgs/tools/admin/analog/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/admin/analog/default.nix index debd6e4c2b77..ec139e7240d3 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/admin/analog/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/admin/analog/default.nix @@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation { meta = { homepage = "http://www.analog.cx/"; license = "GPL"; - description = "a powerful tool to generate web server statistics"; + description = "Powerful tool to generate web server statistics"; maintainers = [ stdenv.lib.maintainers.simons ]; platforms = stdenv.lib.platforms.linux; }; diff --git a/pkgs/tools/filesystems/archivemount/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/filesystems/archivemount/default.nix index c05d2e98af32..8c7593121bbe 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/filesystems/archivemount/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/filesystems/archivemount/default.nix @@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation { buildInputs = [ pkgconfig fuse libarchive ]; meta = { - description = "Gateway between FUSE and libarchive: allows mounting of cpio, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 archives."; + description = "Gateway between FUSE and libarchive: allows mounting of cpio, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 archives"; license = "GPL2"; platforms = stdenv.lib.platforms.linux; diff --git a/pkgs/tools/graphics/argyllcms/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/graphics/argyllcms/default.nix index 934a27ef25b7..d9eed4df224a 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/graphics/argyllcms/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/graphics/argyllcms/default.nix @@ -77,7 +77,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation rec { meta = with stdenv.lib; { homepage = http://www.argyllcms.com; - description = "An ICC compatible color management system"; + description = "Color management system (compatible with ICC)"; license = licenses.gpl3; maintainers = [ maintainers.rickynils ]; platforms = platforms.linux; diff --git a/pkgs/tools/misc/autojump/default.nix b/pkgs/tools/misc/autojump/default.nix index 5371ac55adba..a92b4ae3b1bb 100644 --- a/pkgs/tools/misc/autojump/default.nix +++ b/pkgs/tools/misc/autojump/default.nix @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ in ''; meta = { - description = "Autojump, a `cd' command that learns"; + description = "A `cd' command that learns"; longDescription = '' One of the most used shell commands is “cd”.
