As for apt.ubuntu.com is old and no one bothered to update it so it doesnt work. Just use the software center.

I only get 404s with Firefox and “You don’t seem to be running Ubuntu” with Chromium.

And appnr only has a limited selection of applications.

Sharing / Exporting this list is not yet implemented and will come in the next release! Of course, feedbacks are more than welcomed :)

It looks like it’s about where apturl could be supported better in the desktop, and where in Ubuntu documentation and websites we could use it (e.g. packages.ubuntu.com).

I was more interested in this article in seeing apturl used outside of Ubuntu, e.g. on open source project websites in place of Ubuntu installation instructions, but that’s definitely relevant as well.

Unfortunately the web UI for identi.ca doesn’t seem to recognize the link (I saw your test there)

One down, more to go! (I noticed empathy in karmic already does the right thing, so IMing a friend with an apt://blah works.)

Perhaps we can populate this, and then start talking to developers/upstream to ‘fix’ their packages?
