Launchpad itself

source-highlight has wrong upstream links

Asked by snd

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/source-highlight
Precise, Oneiric & Natty have a wrong upstream link.
It's linked to "SAP ABAP Editor for Java" and should be
linked to GNU source-highlight http://launchpad.net/src-highlite.

This is not a bug in Launchpad's code. This issue is about data that can be set by anyone using the yellow edit icon next to the series on <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/source-highlight>

I set the upstream project of natty, maverick, and oneiric to src-highlite.

For me there are no yellow boxes for natty, oneiric & precise. anyone = any registry admin i guess

Any user, not admin of any sort. The upstream links are crowd sourced, which is also why so many are wrong.

There are still no yellow boxes for me to see, also not on other pages, only those packages which i have added i can edit. (If i would see yellow boxes then i probably wouldnt ask the question above)

Here you can see it:

I believe that any user is able to provide initial links where none exist, but once some links have been specified, *changing* them requires ~registry
