Yes, it is the package description.
All right, I'll attach my control file in the future.

You describe it very aptly. It's a feature.
I didn't have the words to describe it correctly.
Correct, my application will download the pictures
directly from arc.msn.com and from www.bing.com

As I have seen, each image has its the copyright by his owner.
This copyright is included in the description of the daily image.
Every description (with copyright) about the image is stored in
a database, which managed by my application managed.
But I don't refer to it in the description.

Correct, the Application its not tested on Wayland at the moment.

The application only supports the mentioned desktops.
I paraphrased it in the description so as not to list every desktop.
