Would be good to go directly to package page for specified distribution.

package_info_prefix for Fedora - https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/ so https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/zeal is a full package name.

Indeed, this would be nice. Something to note, though, is that some distributions are made up of several repositories. Arch, for example, has core, extra, community, and more. Gentoo organizes its packages by categories which one could roughly map to repositories, I suppose. Debian has the main repository and then -backports and -backports-sloppy.

We could try to hack around the different repositories a bit with the current modeling, but perhaps it'd be better to adjust the database models so a Distribution is composed of one or more Repositories, which have zero or more Packages. The package index URL would live on the Repository object. Thoughts?

Thoughts are that repo subdivision is distro-specific. When people search for a package, they don't use repo or category. Better keep this simple and link to human-oriented interface which accepts only name of the package.

Fedora packages website is not ready yet, and source
pages give links to bug tracker and info about
available versions.
