Hi Jean Luis
In neon we run an mgmt_appstream-generator_noble_user which creates the neon
archive appstream metadata for the packages we produce.
https://build.neon.kde.org/job/mgmt_appstream-generator_noble_user/
Then we have a mgmt_appstream-ubuntu-filter_noble job which filters out the
packages we provide from the ubuntu archive metadata so discover doesn't
display duplicates.
https://build.neon.kde.org/job/mgmt_appstream-ubuntu-filter_noble/
The filter job also only adds desktop-app & desktop-application appstream
component kinds so as to not overload discover with irrelevant entries.
https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/neon-tooling/-/blob/master/nci/appstream_ubuntu_filter.rb?ref_type=heads
The comments in that file are from 2020 and could possibly do with reviewing.
One could argue that web-app/web-application deserve to be not filtered in the
modern day.
I assume that Kubuntu has a similar setup, maybe @rikmills knows more about
this topic ??
