Package: media-player-info Verion: 25-1 Tags: patch User: p...@hungry.com Usertags: appstream-modalias
The Appstream validation report the following problem with the metadata I submitted in BTS #1076991. Errors * gui-app-without-icon The component is a GUI application (application which has a .desktop file for the XDG menu and Type=Application), but we could not find a matching icon for this application. Warnings * asv-desktop-app-launchable-missing org.freedesktop.media_player_info.metainfo.xml - This `desktop-application` component is missing a `desktop-id` launchable tag. This means that this application can not be launched and has no association with its desktop-entry file. It also means no icon data or category information from the desktop-entry file will be available, which will result in this application being ignored entirely. * missing-launchable-desktop-file The MetaInfo file references a .desktop file with ID 'org.freedesktop.media_player_info.desktop' in its launchable tag, but the file was not found in the same source tree. In order to be able to launch the software once it was installed, please place the MetaInfo file and its .desktop files in the same package. I am very sorry about this. These block the metadata from being included in the published database. The metadata got the incorrect component (cut-n-paste error on my part), and should look like this instead: --- media-player-info-25.orig/tools/mpi2appstream.py +++ media-player-info-25/tools/mpi2appstream.py @@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ for f in sys.argv[1:]: parse_mpi(f, modaliases) print("""<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> -<component type="desktop"> +<component> <id>org.freedesktop.media_player_info</id> <metadata_license>MIT</metadata_license> <name>media-player-info</name> With the correct type, the file validates: % appstreamcli validate-tree --no-net --explain debian/media-player-info org.freedesktop.media_player_info.metainfo.xml I: org.freedesktop.media_player_info:~: developer-info-missing This component contains no `developer` element with information about its author. ?
