Description Jeremy Bicha 2016-07-28 20:01:02 UTC 
Since the Maps app temporarily doesn't work (bug 764841 ), it's not good that Maps has the prominent position in the Software app with a wide-screen banner on the home page.

Originally reported (with screenshots) at

Since this is in the gnome-3-20 branch, this affects any distro that does not override this, including Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Fedora 24, etc.

This is a temporary reversion of bug 761561. Once the Maps app works again, I don't have a problem with it being featured again.
