In other words, adding the correct package dependency is sufficient and will
fix the issue.
Adding the AppStream metainfo file on the other hand is optional and can
bring its own problems.

Depends on when you request it. Until the Full Freeze (date not decided
yet) lazarus doesn't need one.

software stores on GNOME and KDE, but not
