Looks like I was speaking too soon and this isn't actually an issue in AppStream - my fix resolves the issue with Python, but breaks the Vala bindings instead: https://github.com/ximion/appstream/issues/289 So, this has to be fixed in some other tool... Also, please don't backport that patch. Cheers, Matthias -- I welcome VSRE emails. See http://vsre.info/
