I think the package name is wrong
Code:
      |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------|
eduactiv8: Eduactiv8 ( educational activities )
eduactiv8:
eduactiv8: eduActiv8 is a set of educational activities and games for children
eduactiv8: aged between 3 and 10. The activities are grid based and can be
eduactiv8: played all in a single window. eduActiv8 includes maths, abc,
eduactiv8: reading, writing, colors, painting, and memory activities.
eduactiv8: 
eduactiv8:
eduactiv8:
eduactiv8: https://www.eduactiv8.org
eduactiv8:
instead of eduAct:

I think the name in the first line must match the package name too
(also I forgot to move the handy-ruler )
