Summary: Ratings should not be displayed on Distribution Wizard
Issue Type: cid:jira-generated-image-avatar-d010632b-e5a6-45d7-9554-3b109448322b Bug
Affects Versions: 17.4.2, 17.5.0
Assignee: Unassigned
Attachments: Inconsistent_Ratings_Displayed.png, Missing_Stars_Upgrade_12_10_11_to_17_4_2.png, Ratings_displayed_for_technical_extensions.png
Components: Distribution - Flavor, Extension
Created: 10/Jul/25 15:34
Environment: Windows 11 Pro, Firefox 140, using an instance of XWiki 17.4.2 on Oracle 19c, Tomcat 11.0.8
Priority: cid:jira-generated-image-static-major-ce8141a4-f300-4eba-9c56-edac848786a8 Major
Reporter: Ilie Andriuta
Description:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Upgrade an older instance of XWiki to 17.4.2 or 17.5.0 by following the Distribution Wizard to the end
  2. Observe the information displayed under extensions (including old - new flavors)

Expected results

No rating stars are displayed.

Actual results

Rating stars are displayed under extensions.

My opinion is that this information can be useful for users on Extension Manager for taking a decision to install an extension based on the rating, but on Distribution Wizard it's less useful and it can even create confusion, since users have little or no control over the installation of most extensions.

Also, there are some inconsistencies in displaying the ratings, the stars are missing for some extensions (please see attached screenshots).
