Description Jeremy Bicha 2017-11-26 23:57:36 UTC
/usr/share/metainfo/ has been the preferred location for appstream metadata since appstream 0.9.4 a year and a half ago

build: Install appstream metadata to non-deprecated location

Contrary to what was mentioned in commit 8ed99c3, $(datadir)/metainfo
is the preferred location, not $(datadir)/appdata.
