I think the application should really provide enough information for the
user to make an informed decision. Maybe check it's bug reports /
development radar, to see if it's already on the developer's list.

Is Gnome Software Centre giving any further details ?

It's as bad as ms windows "the executable file you clicked came from an

No sane person can answer that ;-)
