Bug Description

Binary package hint: kubuntu-docs

Original strings:
#13
<application>KDE Games</application> is a package that contains five subcategories of various types of gaming applications. These five subcategories are: <placeholder-1/>

#14
<application>KDE Games</application> can be easily installed with the <application>Adept Package Manager</application>. <application>KDE Games</application> is located in the <emphasis>Main</emphasis> repositories. Refer to the <ulink type="help" url="help:/kubuntu/add-applications/">Adept Package Manager</ulink> section for installation instructions.

Problem:
The strings are referring to a package named KDE Games, but if a user searches for this in Adept, they cant find the correct package since it should be: kdegames

The following string(#16) does this allready:
Follow the same instructions in the previous paragraph to install single game applications, but instead of searching for <application>kdegames</application>, search for the name of the game instead.

This will have to wait for Hardy, but you are correct. I just checked Adept Installer and there is no KDE Games, and if you search the Adept Manager, you will get the data files only. Good find!

If you or anyone would like to fix this, the XML document is located in our repositories. You can read over https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Repository for more information on that. I will help you out if you are interested in learning the documentation and how to go about working with it. Feel free to look me up on IRC (Freenode) on #ubuntu-doc. I am obviously nixternal in there.
