Item for purchase shows no metadata

The 'Fluendo DVD Player' still has no description (or screenshot) here. The fix in s-c 2.1.18 does however fix the license/updates. There also seems to be no reason why we shouldn't display a version number for 'for purchase' apps?

Hi kiwinote. Yep, thanks for pointing these out. Actually, the description piece is just not implemented yet (this is in fact the reason that this bug still set as "in progress"). The screenshot handling code is in-place however; we just aren't seeing the screenshot simply because the thumbnail file has not yet been uploaded on the server:

Fixes for both of these issues are in progress. Thanks again!

Oh, forgot to address the version number -- I expect we will add that soonish, but currently that value is not included in the metadata that we receive from the software-center-agent and so the choice is to either display "Unknown" or don't display the field. We chose the latter.
