Remote Icon field should work as Filename

Reported by: XbY Owned by: saurik
Priority: minor Component: Cydia
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Actually, you should put the entire URL of the Icon to get it in Cydia.

It would be cool if you could cache these icons if the protocol is HTTP, HTTPS or FTP.

Moreover, I think this field should work in the same way as Filename field.

For example, I have converted a package wih these information :

iPhone:~ root# apt-cache show nl.robota.iphone.sysinfo
Package: nl.robota.iphone.sysinfo
Version: 1.0b-1
Priority: extra
Section: Utilities
Maintainer: Laurent Sibilla <lsibilla@gmail.com>
Architecture: darwin-arm
Filename: debs/ste//nl.robota.iphone.sysinfo_1.0b-1_darwin-arm.deb
Size: 51358
Installed-Size: 148
MD5sum: 8c86df4ccef69e2e73ea92e3629f777d
Name: SysInfo
Icon: debs/ste/nl.robota.iphone.sysinfo_1.0b-1_darwin-arm.png
Description: Lets you see and control all processes running on your iPhone.

iPhone:~ root# 

I can provide a repo with such packages if needed.

Agreed. The intended behavior is that it works like the Filename: field. My time got diverted to porting Cydia and Telesphoreo to 2.0, which I just completed, but I can now start devoting time to Cydia itself again.
