Title:
  Outdated package description

Status in “supertuxkart” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: supertuxkart

  (I am a SuperTuxKart maintainer)

  The SuperTuxKart package description is seriously outdated, and
  mentions "historical" facts like the Game of the month contest (with
  the description only mentions as "GotM", IMO very few people will know
  what this acronym stands for), the original TuxKart and the fork.

  The current SuperTuxKart is very far from these events now, and both
  the original TuxKart and the Game of the Month contest are long
  forgotten.

  Thus instead of talking about the remote history of SuperTuxKart, I
  believe it would more appropriate to replace this with an actual
  description of the game's contents

  Or short description is :
  "SuperTuxKart is a Free 3D kart racing game, with many tracks, characters and items for you to try. "

  Our long description is :
  "SuperTuxKart is a Free 3d kart racing game; we want to make the game fun more than we want to make it realistic. You can play with up to 4 friends on one PC, racing against each other or just try to beat the computer. (a network multiplayer feature is planned)
  See the great lighthouse or drive through the sand and visit the pyramids. Race underground or in space, watching the stars passing by. Have some rest under the palms on the beach (watching the other karts overtaking you :) ). But don't eat the bananas! Watch for bowling balls, plungers, bubble gum and cakes thrown by opponents.
  You can do a single race against other karts, compete in one of several Grand Prix, try to beat the high score in time trials on your own, play battle mode against your friends, and more! "
